Guardians Score Late to Beat Cubs, 7-6
The Cleveland Guardians topped the Chicago Cubs, 7-6, in American League action at Progressive Field. The standout performance belonged to Cleveland pitcher and Dominican Republic, native Hector Jimenez. The loss makes Chicago 4-3.

Cleveland got a knockout punch from Bob Seppings. The left fielder hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Hector mixed and matched," said Cleveland manager Tristan Bugbie.
