The Chicago Cubs defeated the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-5, at Miller Park today. Leading the charge for Chicago was first baseman Efrain Vargas. He was 4 for 4 with 2 doubles, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. The winning pitcher was Edwin Rivera. He's now 9-3. He went 7 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits for the Cubs. Eric Oakes notched his 23rd save in 26 chances.

With Chicago leading 1-0 in the top of the fifth, Vargas hit a changeup from Jose Avila for a run-scoring double. It was his 32nd double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 2-0.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Vargas. "And vice-versa."

The Brewers, at 36-61, have lost 5 in a row.
