Cubs Win, 6-5, at Boston
Boston catcher Sean Murphy had a good game, even if his team did not. The Red Sox dropped a 6-5 decision to Chicago at Fenway Park. Murphy was 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Brandon Woodruff, the winner, is now 3-1. He struck out 9 and walked 5 over 8.1 innings, while allowing 5 runs on 7 hits. Boston drops to 13-15.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Ty France, the 29-year old first baseman . France contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put Chicago up, 2-1.

"We ground out the win," said France. "That's all that matters."
