Piazza Helps Chicago Outscore Texas
The Chicago Cubs downed the Texas Rangers, 15-10, at Arlington Stadium. Mike Piazza led the way, going 4-for-5 for Chicago. The second-place Cubs improved to 30-25.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Jeff Cirillo, the top prospect . Cirillo contributed a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put Chicago up, 6-1.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Piazza told the Chicago Chronicle.
