Castro Propels Chicago Offense in 10-3 Rout
The Chicago Cubs defeated the New York Mets, 10-3, in National League action at Citi Field. Esteban Castro pulled his weight. The 9-year veteran was 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. Chicago, now 78-52, holds down second place in the National League Central Division.

Jaylin Tillman, who is on pace for 91 RBI this season, contributed to the Chicago win with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the third. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

"This kind of win will certainly make our fans happy," Castro told the Chicago Observer.
