Cubs Roll Over Rockies, 9-3
Manuel Morales propelled his team to victory over the Grand Junction Rockies. The final score was 9-3, Chicago (Rk+). In 5.2 innings, Morales surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 2. He allowed 3 runs. Chicago (Rk+)'s record now stands at 13-20, placing them third in the East.

Chicago (Rk+) used a clutch at-bat from Andy Rustay to capture the win. The center fielder hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the first inning to put the Cubs ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

Chicago (Rk+) manager Josh Simms was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.
