Milwaukee pitcher Wally Whitehurst did his part in helping his team beat the Chicago Cubs, 10-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Milwaukee occupies second place in the Federal League Central Division at 82-62.

Milwaukee right fielder John Elway had a key at-bat for the Creams in the top of the seventh inning. Facing right-hander Mike Schooler, Elway hit a grand slam. It put Milwaukee in front, 8-1. For the day, Elway went 1-4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once.

"It's a mindset," said Whitehurst. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
