Victory Over Red Sox Takes Chicago to 27-10
Chicago Cubs starter Fritz Peterson was definitely locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Boston Red Sox, 7-0. In 7 innings, Peterson surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. He allowed no runs. Chicago is now 27-10, 6 games up in the National League Left.

Chicago relied on the bat of Jim Gosger to get the win. The center fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 2-0. For the game, Gosger had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"Throwing strikes was the main thing," Peterson said.
