Cubs win it in ninth.

Sox battle hard with nine but run out of steam in the ninth as the Cubs go long to take the lead and hold on for the victory. Solid starting pitching efforts from both teams.

Down 1 in the 9th, Stephen Birkett (2-4,HR,2b,2r,2rbi) led off the inning with a home run to tie the game. Mike Taylor (2-4,HR,3b,2rbi,2r) then hit his 2nd HR of the season to give the Cubs the lead for good.
