Behind a solid performance from center fielder Jim Gosger, the Chicago Cubs defeated the South Side White Sox, 7-3. Gosger went 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the Cubs. Kyle Gibson, the winner, improved to 2-0. He held the White Sox to 3 earned runs on 6 hits over 7 innings, while striking out 0 and walking 3. The Cubs, now 6-2, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Gosger had a game-changing home run in the top of the sixth. On a 2-2 slider from Freddy Garcia, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Cubs a 4-2 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Gosger.

"I like our moxie," said Cubs manager Matt Ida.
