wako-cubs-2

Kris Bryant hit a two run home run late to break open a tight game with the Milwaukee Brewers Sunday night at Wrigley Field and send the Chicago Cubs to a 4-1 win. The Cubs took two of three from the Brewers and moved 2 games in front in the N.L. Central Division. Jon Lester went 6 2/3 innings on a cold rainy night allowing 1 unearned run on 9 hits. Anthony Rizzo sat out the game with back tightness and Bryant played first. The Cubs are idle Monday and will open up a three game series Tuesday night in Cincinnati against the Reds.
