Cubs Deal Royals 9-5 Loss
The Chicago Cubs and Kansas City Royals put on quite a show.

The 9-5 Chicago win over Kansas City was due largely to Efrain Vargas. The Cubs first baseman was 1 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The loss makes Kansas City 1-1.

Moe Lester drew 1 walk for Chicago. The former first round draft pick had a key at-bat in the top of the tenth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring walk off Asa Hahn. It was his 3rd walk of the season.

"We've got guys willing to do what it takes to win," Lester told the Chicago Gazette.
