39

Hey hey! The Cubs downed the Giants 5-3 on Tuesday at Wrigley behind a quality start from Hamels (6 IP, 3 ER, 5 K), TWO homers from Rizzo, and another from Castellanos.

Rizzo, who reached base in all four plate appearances, has now hit four home runs in his last five games.  Meanwhile, Castellanos' 1.148 OPS with the Cubs is the highest in franchise history for a player with a minimum of 75 plate appearances.

Three Chicago relievers were lights out (3 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 0 ER, 4 K) to seal the win. The series continues Wednesday at the Friendly Confines.

125 games down, 37 to go. 

Go Cubs go!
