Cubs Victors, 7-1, at Houston
The Chicago Cubs downed the Houston Astros, 7-1, at Minute Maid Park. Stellar pitching by Warren Sherwood had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who leads the NL in strikeouts with 155, handcuffed his opponent all game. The winner was Sherwood. He threw 7.0 innings allowing 1 run. The loser was Pablo Villalobos. Oliver De Leon nailed down his 2nd save.

Carlos Jiménez had a big 3-run home run for the Cubs in the top of the ninth inning. With Chicago leading 4-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a sinker from Domingo Carvajal, who is tied for 10th in the NL in saves with 12, and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Cubs on top, 7-1.

"Warren pitched his heart out," said Chicago manager Jacob Sussman.

Chicago is now 51-41, Houston 36-54.
