PCA hits 40th HR, but Marlins sink Cubs 10-3

Javier Sanoja hit a two-run homer and Heriberto Hernández added a solo shot as the Miami Marlins beat the Chicago Cubs 10-3 on Sunday.

Cubs slugger Pete Crow-Armstrong hit his 40th homer and joined Philadelphia’s Kyle Schwarber (42) as the only players to reach the mark this season.

Miami starter Tyler Phillips (5-6) allowed three runs and five hits over five innings as the Marlins avoided a series sweep.

The Marlins chased Cubs starter Clay Holmes (2-3) during a five-run fifth that snapped a 3-all tie.

Crow-Armstrong’s game-tying drive to lead off the fifth traveled 403 feet. He joined Billy Williams as the only Cubs left-handed hitters to hit 40 or more homers in a season. Williams hit 42 in 1970.

Cubs LHP Matthew Boyd (8-3, 4.05 ERA) will face Brewers LHP Robert Gasser (4-5, 4.57) on Monday at Milwaukee.
