Cubs Roll to 8-3 Win Over Rockies
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Chicago Cubs defeated the Colorado Rockies, 8-3, in National League action at Wrigley Field. Chicago pitcher Forrest Whitley had a standout performance. The Rockies drop to 11-14 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2024 season.

Randal Grichuk, who is tied for 6th in the NL in home runs with 7, came through for Chicago with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the first. The right fielder went 2 for 4 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and collected 3 runs batted in.

"For the most part, I made good pitches when I needed to," said Whitley.
