Another game, another loud at-bat out of the leadoff spot for Anthony Rizzo.
The Chicago Cubs got two home runs on the night and Rizzo (1-for-3) continued his leadoff home run surge, as the Cubs made it three-straight wins. It marked Rizzo’s third leadoff home run in a week.
Ian Happ mashed his ninth career big league homer in the eighth, putting the icing on the cake.
Starter Mike Montgomery pitched his best game in a Cubs uniform. He struck out four, walked two and allowed just three hits over six innings.
