Suns Beat Cubs, 7-4
Moriarty third baseman John Whitney was a significant contributor in his team's 7-4 triumph over the Franklin Cubs. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for Moriarty. Willie Garza earned the save for Moriarty, his 1st. Franklin has now lost 5 straight.

Moriarty used the bat of Tom McDonald to get the win. The left fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Suns ahead, 5-3. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We've got a great group of guys," McDonald said, "and we're having fun right now."
