Cubs Tack 7-4 Loss on Rockies
Grand Junction second baseman Mike Veith had a good game, even if his team did not. The Rockies dropped a 7-4 decision to Chicago (Rk+) at Suplizio Field. Veith belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Jaden Moore, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 6th save. The last-place Rockies dropped to 14-25.

The Cubs got a big at-bat from left fielder Skyler McGuire. For the game, McGuire went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the top of the fifth, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 18th double of the season gave Chicago (Rk+) a 4-2 lead.

"Another day, another win. On to the next one," McGuire told the Chicago (Rk+) Chronicle.
