The Chicago Cubs defeated the Detroit Tigers, 3-2, in National League action at Tiger Stadium, with Chicago pitcher Nelson Figueroa named player of the game. The win was credited to Adam Ottavino in relief. His record improves to 5-4. Julio Teheran took the loss. Craig Kimbrel converted his 6th save in 9 tries.

The result might have been different for Chicago, had it not been for Wade Boggs. The second baseman produced a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 3-2. For the game, Boggs had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Figueroa said after the game.

The first-place Cubs have their sights set on making a deep playoff run.
