Cubs Nip Royals, 6-5
Chicago catcher David Ross made his presence felt in the 6-5 Cubs triumph over the Kansas City Royals. Ross went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times. Fritz Peterson got the win, improving to 16-9. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 7 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 0. The first-place Cubs have their sights set on making a deep playoff run.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Phil Rizzuto, the former first round draft pick . Rizzuto contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the seventh inning to put Chicago up, 6-4.

"We found a way to get it done," Rizzuto said.
