Nationals Fall Short, 7-6, at Chicago
The Chicago Cubs beat the Washington Nationals, 7-6, at Wrigley Field. Kevin Norton, in particular, was impressive. He was 2-3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The winning pitcher was Josh MacQueen. He tossed 107 pitches over 8 innings, allowing 6 runs on 7 hits. Mike Alexander picked up the save, his 3rd.

In the bottom of the fourth, Chicago second baseman Xavier Davis had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and two out, Davis stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 4-2, Chicago. For the game, he was 1 for 4 with a walk.

"Nothing is scripted in this game," said Davis.

Chicago now has a record of 7-8.
