Phillies pound Cubs, 13-3

Chicago loses 10th straight game

CHICAGO (AP) — Odúbel Herrera hit a three-run homer, and the Philadelphia Phillies went deep five times while handing the Chicago Cubs their 10th straight loss with a 13-3 romp on Monday night.

The Cubs remained winless since Zach Davies and three relievers combined to no-hit the Dodgers in Los Angeles on June 24. They also extended their worst losing streak since a 12-game slide in May 2012.

Cubs manager David Ross got ejected by plate umpire Nic Lentz following a heated argument.

Ross came out of the dugout after Bryce Harper led off with a walk against reliever Rex Brothers. First-base umpire Joe West got between him and Lentz before Ross left the field. The ejection was Ross’ third this season and fourth in two years managing the Cubs.

Starting at $3.50/week.
