Cubs Swat Athletics, 11-2
The Chicago Cubs pinned a convincing loss on the Oakland Athletics, 11-2, at Wrigley Field. Jed Bly was a main factor in the win. He was 4 for 4 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for Chicago. Chicago starter Nick Travieso was credited with the win after throwing 95 pitches over 5 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. Oakland is now 2-4.

The Athletics had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Cubs going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the former first overall pick Kevin Wilson came to the plate. Wilson hit a run-scoring double on a 0-2 knuckle curve from Oakland hurler Héctor Hernández. It was Wilson's 1st double of the year.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Bly said after the game.
