Cubs Clip Marlins, 4-3
The Chicago Cubs topped the Miami Marlins, 4-3, in National League action at Marlins Park. The standout performance belonged to Chicago pitcher and Johns Creek, Georgia, native Jose Matos. The National League Central Division-leading Cubs have a record of 73-41.

Chicago used a clutch hit from Juan Flores to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We take it day by day here," said Flores, "and today was a good one for us."
