A brilliant team-wide pitching effort from six guys kept the Cubs in check and gave the Giants their second win in a row. Randy Rodriguez opened things and was dazzling (5 K) for 2+ but then gave up a run with two outs in the 3rd. Sean Hjelle finished the frame and got five more outs. Taylor Rogers picked up the ball for three outs, then 1-1/3 from Ryan Walker, and then a scoreless inning from Tyler Rogers. Camilo Doval had a quiet 9th to finish things off.
Kyle Hendricks was very tough for Chicago, yielding only two in his seven frames.
