					| Chicago Topples Los Angeles, 8-6 |  
					| The Chicago Cubs had to overcome a big game from Los Angeles first baseman Danny Dyer to leave Dodger Stadium with a victory. And they did, winning 8-6. Dyer was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double,  and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Eric Oakes earned the save, his 4th, for the Cubs.  At 59-58, Chicago is in third place in the National League Central Division. 
 In the top of the first, Efrain Vargas ambushed a 2-2 fastball from Justin Scheithauer and hit a 2-run  home run. It gave Chicago a quick 2-0 lead.
 
 "We cashed in when we had the chance," said Chicago manager Mergatroid Skittle.
