Chicago snapped a five-game losing streak by clobbering the Marlins 14-2 on Monday as Ian Happ hit a two-run homer in the fourth and a three-run shot in the seventh. The Cubs' bats came alive after a 14-inning marathon loss at St. Louis the night before as Kris Bryant and Javier Baez also went deep for Chicago. Miami has lost eight of the last nine meetings at Chicago and the Marlins are 9-23 their last 32 road games and Chicago has won seven of its last nine home contests. The Marlins are 1-10 in Jose Urena's last 11 starts dating to last season and 7-19 his last 26 starts against teams with winning records. Urena is 0-5 with a 4.28 ERA and gave up five runs on six hits in four innings against the Cubs in March. Yu Darvish was put on the disabled list and the Cubs likely will use several pitchers, but it will be enough to get the win in this matchup. Take the Cubs.
