Rizzo, Soler drive in 2 as surging Cubs beat Brewers 6

Dan Haren retired the primary eight batters Tuesday night time, and the Cubs took benefit of two Brewers miscues to attain three runs within the second inning and maintain a Four-Zero lead within the backside of the third.

Haren, making his second start for Chicago, gave up three runs and five hits.

CHICAGO (AP) – Anthony Rizzo and Jorge Soler each drove in two runs, Dan Haren picked up his first victory for the Cubs and Chicago won for the 11th time in 12 games, beating the Milwaukee Brewers 6-3 Tuesday night. Kris Bryant began the rally with a double to left middle.

Jungmann, the rookie right-hander who has thrust himself into the Brewers’ plans with a surprising season, entered the game with a 6-3 record and 2.26 earned run average. But catcher Jonathan Lucroy dropped the ball on the tag for an error, allowing Soler to score.

Chicago made it 4-0 in the third when second baseman Chris Coghlan walked, stole second on an overturned call and came home on Rizzo’s double to center with none out.

Jungmann (6-4) went two and two third innings giving up four runs, two of which were earned, on five hits while waking three and striking out three.

It was the eighth straight game in which the opposing pitcher has failed to get through six innings against this Cubs lineup.
