Cubs Rack Up 5-2 Win Versus Washington
The Chicago Cubs got a good effort from starter Jérémy Dumont in defeating the Washington Nationals at Wrigley Field. The final score was 5-2. Andrew Gray picked up the save for Chicago, his 8th of the year. The defeat makes Washington 18-32.

Ruben Cardenas had a big 2-run home run for the Cubs in the bottom of the second inning. With Chicago leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a cutter from Mike Rios, who is tied for 9th in the NL in quality starts with 6, and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Cubs on top, 3-0.

Cardenas said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
