Anthony Rizzo hit a lead-off homer and the Cubs went on to blank the Padres 4-0 at Wrigley Field. Ian Happ added a solo shot in the eighth for Chicago, which has won three straight to move to 36-and-34. Mike Montgomery allowed only three hits and two walks while striking out four in six innings to earn his first win.
Jhoulys Chacin permitted two runs during his six-inning start to fall to 6-and-6. San Diego looks to avoid a three-game sweep today at Wrigley Field.
