Godley gave up five runs on four hits and four walks in 2 2/3 innings as his ERA jumped to 7.78. He struck out three, including the first two in the third inning of a scoreless game before the Cubs scored five in the frame.

Daniel Descalso walked and Kris Bryant doubled, and Descalso scored when Godley was called for a balk for moving his right foot on the rubber while in the stretch.
