The home crowd had a good time watching the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs get after it.

Cubs catcher Willson Contreras put his stamp on his team's 13-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Contreras was 1 for 2 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 3 times and drove in 3 for Chicago in the contest. The 4th-place Cubs have won 4 consecutive games.

Michael A. Taylor helped the cause in the bottom of the second. With the bases loaded, he hit a grand slam. His at-bat contributed to the Chicago win.

"Today was a lot of fun," said Contreras.
