winning homestand at 6-4, beating the Colorado Rockies 7-5 on Sunday.
The Cubs improved to 13-6 in their last 19 games at Wrigley Field. They have hit 36 home runs in their last 20 home games. They have hit a season-high tying
four homers (third time), and improved to 10-1 when hitting three or more homers.
