Holy cow! The Cubs shut out the Dodgers 13-0 at Wrigley on Friday behind a dominant start from Smyly (7.2 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 10 K) and 4 RBI from Hoerner.
 
Smyly had a perfect game through 7 innings until Peralta's broken bat infield dribbler led to a collision between Smyly and Gomes and the only hit of the game. Hoerner went 4-for-5 (.365 BA), Mancini went 3-for-5 (3 RBI), and Bellinger, Suzuki, and Wisdom each had two hits. 
 
Bellinger, Mancini, Wisdom, and Hoerner each homered for the North Siders.
 
The series continues on Saturday at the Friendly Confines.

19 games down, 143 to go. Go Cubs go!
