Nick Castellanos, who finished 4th in the NL in batting average with .300 in 2014, led Montreal to a triumph over Chicago. The final score was 5-3. The right fielder went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 1 run and added 2 RBI. Lucas Giolito, the 11th overall pick in the 2015 draft, was the winner. He's now 5-11. The loser was Johnny Cueto. The Montreal winning streak has reached 3 games.

Maikel Franco contributed to the Montreal win with a solo home run in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 RBI.

Franco called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
