Chicago (N) defeated San Francisco today 9-3 and took some of the joy out of Johnny Rizzo's 300th career home run.

"I just wanted to get a good swing on the ball all day," Rizzo said. "And I did."

Despite the loss, it was a good game for the 32-year-old Giants right fielder. He had 1 hit, scored 1 run and had 1 run batted in.

The Cubs manager said, "You could see he was aggressive up there. The worst thing we did was throw him a strike. It probably would have been better if we threw the ball outside of the strike zone every time he came to the plate because he seemed like he was in a hurry to get it over with."

Rizzo has compiled a career batting average of .307 with 1324 hits, 300 homers and 947 RBIs.
