128

Hey hey! Kris Bryant's walk-off, three-run homer broke a 2-2 tie and gave the Cubs a victory over Miami on Tuesday night at Wrigley, 5-2.

Jon Lester's quality start (6 IP, 0 ER, 6 K) set the pace for Chicago, and the bullpen rebounded nicely with three scoreless innings of relief (3 IP, 0 ER 1 H, 6 K).

Despite a stiff wind blowing in from center, both Almora and Bryant managed to hit HRs. KB and Almora each had 2-for-5 nights, Baez's 2-for-3 night raised his season average to .321, and Contreras's 1-for-3 night raised his to .313. Both Javy & Willy rank among the top ten hitters in the NL. That's Cub.

The series continues Wednesday night at the Friendly Confines. 33 games down, 129 to go.

Go Cubs go!
