Breaking out of an 0-for-17 slump, George Hendrick swatted a solo homer in the fourth inning to support Randy Jones' airtight pitching as the Padres topped the Cubs, 1-0. The ace lefty needed only 91 pitches to earn his third win in five decisions. Hendrick entered the game hitting .192. [The Sporting News]
