Tim Fletcher: Former LSU Tiger Gains First MLB Win

Former LSU ace, Aaron Nola notched his first major league win Sunday, holding the Cubs to five hits and four runs over 7.2 innings of work in an 11-5 Philadelphia win.  Nola also picked up his first big-league RBI with a run-scoring single as part of a three-run fourth inning.

The Phillies swept the Cubs for their eighth win in nine games since the All-Star break---not bad for the league's worst team. Nola's  performance came a day after Cole Hamels no-hit the Cubs in Wrigley Field Saturday.
