with his solo home run to centre. It was his fourth, coming on a 0-1 pitch from

Bogusevic scooped up the ball and threw to the catcher Welington Castillo, who
tagged out the sliding Ibanez. NOTES: Finishing games have been a problem for
the Cubs. They are 26-9 when leading after seven and 28-6 when leading after
eight. Seattle, by contrast, is 30-1 when leading after seven and 30-2 when
leading after eight. "Its been tough all year to get those outs, whether its the
eighth or ninth inning, especially after leading so many games after seven
innings," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. "We have to make pitches and get people
out in those situations." The Cubs have lost 24 games in which theyve had the
lead at some point, tied for most in the majors. . Ryan Sweeney left the game in
the fourth inning with left rib soreness. . It was a Turn Back the Clock game.
