Cubs Roll Over Devil Rays, 9-4
The Chicago Cubs powered past the Orlando Devil Rays, 9-4, at Wrigley Field. Mike Piazza was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once, to lead the charge. With the win over Orlando, the Cubs improved to 41-62.

Trot Nixon had a big 2-run double for the Cubs in the bottom of the second inning. With Chicago leading 2-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from Randy Tomlin and stroked the double to left. It was his 25th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cubs ahead, 4-0.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Piazza said.
