The South Bend Cubs earned a win at Stanley Coveleski Regional Stadium, stopping the Lake County Captains, 5-2. Starting pitcher Rinaldo Saro played a big role in his team's success.

In the bottom of the sixth, Yu-wei Liu delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the South Bend second baseman hit a run-scoring single, putting the Cubs in front, 5-2.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Saro said after the game.

The Cubs, at 26-37, inhabit 7th place in the Eastern Division.
