David Ross' wind-aided RBI single in the bottom of the 11th pushed the Cubs to a 2-1 win over the Royals at Wrigley Field. Ross' pop-up landed between a pair of Royals in shallow left to give Chicago a split in the rain-shortened two-game set. Chris Coghlan singled home a run in the seventh, while Zac Rosscup was credited with his second win. Alex Gordon laced an RBI single in the sixth for Kansas City, which has dropped five-of-six. Ryan Madson was tagged with the loss.
The Cubs open up a series at Miami tonight.
