					| Padres Win at Chicago, 6-3 |  
					| Efrain Vargas had a good game, but he could not keep the Chicago Cubs from falling, 6-3, to the San Diego Padres at Wrigley Field. The Chicago first baseman was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles,  and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 in the loss. Tommy Hall converted his 23rd save in 31 tries. San Diego goes to 105-50. The win puts them 11 games up in their division. 
 San Diego used a timely hit from Andy Bowman to get the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run  double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Padres ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.
 
 "I'm just happy to help the team win," Bowman told the San Diego News.
