The offense managed double-digit hits but could not get them when they needed them most. The Indians went three for nine with runners in scoring position but left seven on base and fall just short of the Cubs 5-3.
Carlos Carrasco made his 10th start of the season and pitched well enough to keep the Indians in the game. He spread out eight hits over six and allowed three runs.
Javier Baez started the scoring with a mammoth home run to dead center off a hanging slider from Carrasco in the bottom of the second.
