The Chicago Cubs jumped all over Carlos Rodón, scoring five and knocking him out of the box before the third inning was over.

A disappointing final game of Hawk Harrelson’s career, to say the least.
At midgame, Welington Castillo was the only South Sider with a hit, and he had two, a double and a single.
