Yankees Drop Cubs, 3-2
Baseball fans saw a good contest between the New York Yankees and Chicago Cubs.

New York rode a good effort from starter Jordan Balazovic to beat the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The final score was 3-2. Balazovic got the win, improving to 2-13. He allowed 4 hits and walked 2 over 5.2 innings. Balazovic allowed no runs.

New York took a 3-0 lead on Max Flora's 27th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Flora hit in the top of the seventh, left Chicago pitcher Triston Casas visibly frustrated.

"Winning never gets dull," said Balazovic.

Chicago, at 54-87, has lost 4 straight.
