Cubs Win, 7-5, Versus Toronto
The performance of Gleyber Torres proved critical in helping Chicago beat Toronto, 7-5. The Cubs third baseman went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Chicago reliever Brooks Raley picked up the win, upping his record to 3-1. Erik Swanson was saddled with the loss. The winning continues for Chicago, with the latest triumph making it 7 straight.

Chicago center fielder Julio Rodriguez contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the second. With two down, he hit a slider to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 132nd hit of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 4-0.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Torres.
