Oracle Park was the site of a competitive game between the San Francisco Giants and Chicago Cubs.

The Chicago Cubs went home winners at Oracle Park, thanks in large part to starter Michael Soroka. Soroka stifled the San Francisco Giants, enabling Chicago to grab the 2-0 win. The loss drops the Giants to 10-11.

Soroka's performance can only be described as masterful. He notched 8 strikeouts in 8 innings while allowing 3 hits. Soroka, who is tied for 7th in the NL in strikeouts with 26, goes to 3-0 on the year with 26 strikeouts.

"Michael was dictating to their hitters," said Chicago manager Irish Turner.
