Cubs Reel In 13-6 Win
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Chicago N (AZL) Cubs and San Diego (AZL) Padres.

The Chicago N (AZL) Cubs defeated the San Diego (AZL) Padres, 13-6, at Peoria Sports Complex. Chicago N (AZL) was led by 18-year old catcher Peter Welde, who went 4-5 with a triple and 3 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Chicago N (AZL) reliever Alex Mejias was the winner. His record is now 1-0. Hugo Gomez took the loss.

Chicago N (AZL) used the hitting of Phil Stirling to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Cubs on top, 5-3. For the game, Stirling had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Cubs manager Ray Behm wasn't all too pleased, despite the win, telling reporters that the performance highlighted some clear areas for improvement moving forward. He refused to be more specific, however. "I'm not gonna publicize our weaknesses," he said. "That stuff stays in the clubhouse."

The Cubs are now 23-24, while the Padres fall to 33-15.
