Suwinski Helps Chicago Cruise to 11-3 Win
A 4-RBI performance from left fielder Jack Suwinski, who leads the NL in home runs with 36, led the Chicago Cubs to a win over the Milwaukee Brewers, 11-3. Brandon Woodruff picked up the win with 7 innings of work. He allowed 2 runs on 5 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 6. On the season, he is now 13-6. The losses continue to pile up for Milwaukee, which has now fallen 13 times in a row.

With Chicago leading 3-0 in the bottom of the third, Suwinski hit a fastball from Clayton Kershaw for a 3-run home run. It was his 36th home run of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 6-0.

Suwinski told a Chicago Citizen reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
