The Miami Marlins beat the Chicago Cubs, 5-4, at loanDepot Park. Miami left fielder Joc Pederson had an outstanding performance. He went 2-2 with 2 singles and 2 walks. Braxton Garrett, now 9-3, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 4 runs on 8 hits in 6 innings. Yic Bi wrapped it up, recording his 29th save.

Jake Burger drove in one run for Miami. The 29-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Julian Merryweather. It was his 71st RBI of the season.

"It was a solid team effort," Pederson said. "That's usually what it takes to win."

The current losing streak for Chicago has reached 4 games.
