Tight Tilt Goes to Cubs, 2-1
In a low-scoring affair between the Chicago (N) Cubs and the Toronto Blue Jays, pitcher Mike McDonald was the difference between victory and defeat. The Chicago (N) right-hander earned accolades in the 2-1 Cubs win. Sean Fox locked down his 9th save. Chicago (N), at 60-62, holds down second place in the National League Central Division.

Luis Cardenas was 1-3 for Chicago (N). The 27-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Juan Marín. It was his 43rd RBI of the season.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Toronto manager said following the tough loss.
