					| Cubs Take Down Diamondbacks, 5-3 |  
					| The Chicago Cubs defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks, 5-3, at Wrigley Field. Chicago designated hitter Jose Balderrama had a superb performance. He was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Josh MacQueen got credit for the win, improving to 8-8. He allowed 3 runs on 5 hits in 7 innings. Chicago, now 47-63, holds down 4th place in the National League Central Division. 
 The game hit a turning point in the bottom of the fifth inning, when the Cubs were trailing 3-2.  Tze-meng Gan delivered a two-out 2-run  single for Chicago, catapulting his team into the lead.
 
 "I felt good up there," said Balderrama. "I saw the ball well."
