Cubs Stay Hot With 5-4 Win
The Cubs had to overcome a good performance from Colorado pitcher Tim Stauffer to claim a 5-4 win at Astrodome. Stauffer went 9 innings and allowed 5 earned runs. Fritz Peterson got the win, improving to 12-6. He worked 7.2 innings, giving up 3 runs on 10 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 1. The Cubs bumped their record to 75-46 with this latest triumph.

Chicago used a timely hit from Wade Boggs to get the win. The second baseman delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the sixth inning to put the Cubs on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"There were things that we could've improved upon," said Cubs manager Matt Ida, "but all in all, I'm satisfied with our performance."
