Saturday afternoon, the Cubs beat the Rangers (CHC 3, TEX 1) thanks in large part to starter Jason Hammel. Hammel held Texas to one run on three hits and a walk in six innings. He struck out seven to improve to 8-5 with a 3.34 ERA on the season.
Hammel dealt with some on and off cramping prior to the All-Star break, first in his hamstring and then in his pitching hand.
