Kris Bryant had a Fourth of July to remember as the Cubs cruised past the Marlins, 7-2, at Wrigley Field. Kris Bryant belted a two-run home run in the first inning and followed it up with his second career grand slam in the next frame. Clayton Richard tossed six-and-a-third innings to pick up the win in his first start since 2013. Chicago has won four of its last five. Jarred Cosart gave up all seven runs in less than two innings to fall 1-and-4 for Miami. Jeff Baker and Adeiny Hechavarria each knocked in a run for the Marlins, who saw their four-game winning streak come to an end.
Final game of the series is this afternoon at Wrigley Field.
