Minnesota Wastes Great Game by Thomas
The Chicago Cubs defeated the Minnesota Twins, 5-3. Earning player of the game honors was first baseman Frank Thomas, who hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Doug Jones converted his 22nd save in 26 tries. Chicago is now riding a 3-game win streak.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Scott Brosius, the 28-year old third baseman . Brosius contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put Chicago up, 5-1.

Brosius attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
