					| Cubs Down Marlins, 8-2 |  
					| The Chicago Cubs earned a win at Marlins Park, stopping the Miami Marlins, 8-2. Starting pitcher Edwin Rivera played a big role in his team's success. Rivera picked up the win for Chicago, going 6.1 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 3-1. Mike Alexander picked up the save for Chicago, his 1st of the year. 
 Chicago used the clutch hitting of Tim Hone to snag the win. The left fielder drilled a 3-run  home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cubs ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.
 
 "We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Hone said after the game.
 
 With the loss, Miami sinks to 9-12.
