6-2 Loss Deepens Philadelphia Funk
Chicago center fielder Kaeo Zirpoli made his presence felt in the 6-2 Cubs triumph over the Philadelphia Phillies. Zirpoli was 3-4 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 times. Reliever Chris Allen picked up the win. His record improves to 4-0. Robby Benchio took the loss. The losing streak for Philadelphia has now reached 8 games.

The Cubs got an important contribution from catcher Terry Tuckfard, who in the bottom of the second knocked a full count forkball into right-center for a bases-clearing double. It was his 19th double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 5-1.

Zirpoli called the win the result of "everyone working in tandem."
