Mike Stanton closed the door for Chicago (N), picking up his 4th save of the year.

The Cubs picked up the win with a combination of good hitting and good pitching.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Sawatski told the Chicago (N) Citizen.

With the win over San Francisco, the Cubs improved to 29-18.
