Cubs add to Wild Card lead over Giants

Brandon Belt hit a two-run homer but it wasn't enough. This is the third time in as many games that the Giants starter lasted four innings. On Saturday, it was Matt Cain, making his seventh start, who walked a season-high five batters.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Kid stuff: The Cubs loaded the bases in the first and Bryant picked up an RBI when he hit into a fielder's choice. His third-inning homer scored Anthony Rizzo, who singled. It was Bryant's first home run and multi-RBI game since July 27, and he now leads all Major League rookies with 64 RBIs.
