Behind a solid performance from left fielder Justin Upton, the Chicago Cubs defeated the Milwaukee Brewers, 5-3. Upton went 3-4 with a home run and 2 doubles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs. Carter Capps got credit for the win, improving to 2-0. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 1 innings. The Brewers drop to 13-13 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2018 season.

Upton had a game-changing double in the bottom of the eighth. On a first pitch fastball from Chad Green, he banged a 2-run double to center, giving the Cubs a 5-3 lead. It was the 7th double of the year for Upton.

Upton told a Chicago Bulletin reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
