Baez Stars in 5-0 Cubs Win
Joshua Baez was a major factor in the 5-0 South Bend win over Lake County. The Cubs right fielder was 4 for 4 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Troy Melton got the win, improving to 6-5. He held the Captains to no runs on 1 hit over 7 innings, while striking out 8 and walking 1. The first-place Cubs sport a record of 74-60.

South Bend designated hitter Elliott Jones contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball into center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 99th hit of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 2-0.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Baez, "one at-bat at a time."
