Cubs rookie Kyle Schwarber got Chicago on the board early against the San Francisco Giants with his 12th home run of the season.
The rookie left fielder crushed a three-run home run to right field off Giants pitcher Matt Cain with two outs in the top of the third inning.
After it looked like Cain might pitch out of jam, Schwarber hits two-out, three-run shot to right.
