Cubs Jolt Astros, 5-3, with Late Rally
The Chicago Cubs picked up a win at Wrigley Field, knocking off the Houston Astros, 5-3. Starting pitcher Jérémy Dumont played a key role in the triumph. Jonathan Hager, who is tied for 9th in the NL in saves with 25, nailed down the save. The third-place Cubs have won 4 consecutive games.

Chicago took a 4-3 lead on Adam McCloskey's 27th double of the season. The 2-run double, which McCloskey hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Houston pitcher Danny Torres visibly frustrated.

"I like our mindset right now," said Chicago manager Vin Calia.
