Chicago 7-2 Victors at Minute Maid Park
Keury Mella, who finished 5th in the NL in saves with 25 in 2021, propelled his team to victory over the Houston Astros. The final score was 7-2, Chicago. The winner was Mella. He threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was Greg Connolly. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Cubs.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Kevin Wilson to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cubs on top, 5-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Chicago manager Warren Schaeffer.
