Chicago pitcher Randy Budgell did his part in helping his team beat the Colorado Rockies, 3-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. The first-place Cubs, at 87-41, now lead their division by 11 games.

Chicago used a timely hit from Yasuhide Kasahara to get the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cubs ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

Kasahara told a Chicago Observer reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
