3-0 Loss Extends West Michigan Skid
The South Bend Cubs went home winners at Four Winds Field at Coveleski Stadium, thanks in large part to starter Jorge Varela. Varela stifled the West Michigan Whitecaps, enabling South Bend to grab the 3-0 win. Rodolfo Lara finished the game for South Bend and earned his 20th save. The Whitecaps, now 44-95, have lost 6 in a row.

Juan Ramos had a big 2-run home run for the Cubs in the bottom of the sixth inning. With South Bend leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a slider from 21-year old left-handed pitcher Joe Sawyer and punished it. The result was his 11th home run of the season, which put the Cubs on top, 3-0.

"From the last whatever, five, six, seven games, there's really only one way to go and that's up," said losing manager Chad Duesler.
