The Chicago Cubs topped the Minnesota Twins, 10-5, in Federal League action at Wrigley Field. The player of the game was Chicago second baseman Geronimo Pena. Chicago has a 4-game win streak, while Minnesota has lost 5 in a row.

The Cubs got an important contribution from designated hitter Dion James, who in the bottom of the second knocked a 3-1 fastball into right for a 2-run double. It was his 14th double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 2-0.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," James said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
