Cubs Top Giants, 8-2
The Chicago Cubs powered past the San Francisco Giants, 8-2, at AT&T Park. Adam McCloskey provided some of the pop. Peñita went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Matt Whitlatch was the winner in relief. His record is now 3-6. The losing pitcher was Carlos Martinez. Chicago currently is in second place in the National League Central Division at 65-46.

Chicago used a clutch at-bat from Miguel Gerena to capture the win. The shortstop hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Cubs ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I just try to bring what I bring to this team," said McCloskey.
