Cubs Deal Astros 9-7 Defeat
The Chicago Cubs beat the Houston Astros, 9-7, at Minute Maid Park. The win was due in part to shortstop Jonathan Reese, who was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The save went to Bobby Morgan, his 22nd this season. Chicago now sits in second place in the National League East Division at 55-39.

Chicago used the clutch hitting of Juan Sierra to capture the win. The catcher drilled a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Cubs the lead, 6-3. For the game, Sierra had 2 singles and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Reese, "but we got it done."
