Conditions were not ideal but Chicago and Colorado were able to put their game in the books.

Behind a solid performance from shortstop Paul DeJong, the Chicago Cubs defeated the Colorado Rockies, 10-5. DeJong hit 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the Cubs. The winner was Matt Moore in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Aaron Sanchez took the loss.

Justin Upton swatted a 3-run home run for Chicago in the bottom of the first. The left fielder went 2 for 4 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 3.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," said DeJong. "But I like how we're playing right now."

The Rockies fall to 11-21 and continue to sputter in the early going.
