The Cubbies went up 4-0 in the first and never looked back, even though the final score made it look closer than it really was. Leon Durham hit a 2-RBI double with the bases loaded, helping chase away Len Barker after three innings and seven runs of offense. Durham added another RBI, again with a double, in the sixth. But it was Rich Hebner, making an ultra-rare start in the outfield, who had the biggest day. He went four for five with a RBI and three runs scored...plus an outfield assist!

Game #604 - Minnesota Twins, 0 @ Boston Red Sox, 7
The poor Twins lost this one almost as soon as it started. In the bottom of the first Wade Boggs singled, Dwight Evans walked, and then Mike Easler homered to give them a 3-0 lead before they even recorded an out! Bob Ojeda scattered nine hits and two walks in a complete game shutout, the first shutout of the year for any Boston pitcher.
Winning Pitcher - Bob Ojeda
