Boston Red Sox (43-42) 1 0 0 1 0 2 0 3 0 7 8 1
Cubs Score Late to Win, 9-7
The inspired effort of Boston shortstop Xander Bogaerts was not enough to prevent a loss, 9-7, to the Chicago Cubs. Bogaerts went 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times. Picking up the save was Sean Marshall, his 19th. Chicago goes to 44-41, Boston to 43-42.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Kiki Cuyler to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cubs on top, 7-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Cuyler told the Chicago Bulletin.
