Cubs Win at Texas, 9-5
Benefiting from Bob Brower's productive game, the Chicago Cubs downed the Texas Rangers, 9-5. Brower went 2 for 4 with a home run. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Cubs. Teddy Higuera went 8.2 innings for Chicago to pick up the win. The left-hander was charged with 5 earned runs. He scattered 9 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 6. His record improves to 17-13. Doug Jones converted his 43rd save in 47 tries.

Derek Bell had a go-ahead double for Chicago in the top of the fifth inning. With no one out and the bases loaded, the former first round draft pick hit a 2-run double off Kenny Rogers. His 15th double of the season made the score 5-3.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Brower.

Chicago is now 94-66, while Texas is 71-89.
