The Cubs' Jeff Samardzija came out yesterday with another strong performance, both on the mound and in the batter's box.
Samardzija threw six innings, giving up 2 runs (1 earned) over 5 hits. He walked none and struck out three, bringing his ERA down to 4.05. "The Shark" also continued his hot streak behind the plate, going 1-for-1 with a walk, a triple, and an RBI, his third on the season.
Despite the team's shaky performance in the field (3 errors), Samardzija, and the Cubs, netted the win, 5-3.
