Gonzalez Stars for Cubs in 6-3 Win
A 5-RBI performance from the 2003 Most Valuable Player Award winner Luis Gonzalez helped the Chicago Cubs beat the Colorado Rockies, 6-3. Carlos Zambrano got the win, improving to 19-7. He worked 6.2 innings, giving up 1 run on 4 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 4. The Cubs now own a record of 87-75.

Chicago grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Gonzalez hit a grand slam home run off Dennis Ulacia. His 43rd home run of the season put the Cubs out in front, 5-1.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Gonzalez.
