Wisdom's 3-run double lifts Cubs over Rockies. MORE:
Mills overcame a rocky start to pitch six innings for his first win since July 7. Wisdom finished with three hits.
“It’s nice when you have a guy that throws that hard and the ball moves that much. Picks up a big save for us,” Cubs manager David Ross said. “That was a nice outing from Manny.”Rockies starter Jon Gray walked one batter over six innings and it came back to hurt him. After getting the first two outs of the fifth he gave up consecutive singles to Rafael Ortega and Willson Contreras and then walked Ian Happ, a .177 hitter, to load the bases.
“I didn’t square it up flush like a no-doubter, but I knew we were in Colorado and some weird things can happen,” he said. “I don’t know if I got a little lazy with what I was throwing, but if we throw a fastball there we probably get him out,” Gray said about Wisdom’s double. “I wasn’t attacking the zone, I felt like. A lot of hits, a lot of traffic.”
