6 Straight Wins for Cubs
Despite the rain, the fans at Wrigley Field enjoyed a good ballgame.

Though he had a great game, Mitch Garver could not single-handedly produce a win for Toronto. Chicago won the game, 3-2. Garver was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. Justin Steele collected his 3rd save.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Cubs had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the sixth, when third baseman Patrick Wisdom hit a 2-run home run. The home run came off Tim Mayza and made the score 3-2, Cubs. Wisdom was 1 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Wisdom.

At 69-55, the Cubs claim second place in the National League Central Division.
