Holy cow! The first place Cubs downed the Brewers 9-1 on a hot and humid Sunday at Wrigley behind a quality start from Tyler Chatwood (6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 8 K) and some well-executed small ball by the offense.
A four-run fourth gave the Cubs the lead for good, and the bullpen tossed three innings of no-hit, shutout ball to slam the door.
With the game safely in hand, the Cubs broke out the big bats late, with Contreras, Happ, and Rizzo each homering to pile on the insurance runs.
The North Siders kick off a four-game set in Cincinnati on Monday. 3 games down, 57 to go!
Go Cubs go!
