Chicago Edges Tampa Bay, 1-0
In a tight contest between the Chicago Cubs and the Tampa Bay Rays, Matt Harvey was the determining factor. The Chicago right-hander sparkled in his team's 1-0 win. In 7.1 innings, Harvey surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 0. He allowed no runs. Chicago goes to 68-81, Tampa Bay to 74-75.

Ron Hicks was 2-3 with a triple for Chicago. The 27-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Chris Stephenson. It was his 50th RBI of the season.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Tampa Bay manager Joey Cora said, following the tough loss.
