Behind an impressive start by Tyler Glasnow, Chicago beat Toronto, 5-1. The first-place Cubs, at 74-51, lead the National League Central Division by 9½ games.

Chicago second baseman Gleyber Torres contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a cutter to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 109th hit of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 5-0.

"I still think this team can play even better," Torres told the Chicago Times.
