Cubs Earn 3-1 Home Win
The Chicago Cubs faced a tough opponent in Toronto pitcher Carlos Rodriguez, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Wrigley Field by a final score of 3-1. Rodriguez went 7.1 innings and allowed 3 runs. Toronto has now lost 4 consecutive games.

Chicago took a 3-1 lead on Agustin Ramirez's 17th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Ramirez hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Toronto pitcher Carlos Rodriguez visibly frustrated.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Ramirez.
