Cubs Shut Out Marlins

     The Chicago Cubs blanked the Miami Marlins 4-0 on Tuesday night at Marlins Park. The Fish continued their losing ways and fell for the 12th time in the last 14 games.
     Chicago(7-9) picked up the first run of the contest during the third inning. Daniel Descalso drove in David Bote with a base hit into right field.
     In the fourth inning, the Cubs extended it to 2-0. They had the bases loaded and then Bote grounded out to short for Javier Baez to score.
     Miami(4-14) gave up two more runs in the final two innings. Baez smashed a solo home run to center field on a 0-1 pitch in the top of the eighth. Ben Zobrist hit a sacrifice fly to right in the ninth inning to score Dote.
