Daniel Descalso and the Cubs seem to be a perfect fit.

During Thursday night's game, Descalso smacked a go-ahead RBI single to score Jason Heyward from second base to put the Cubs up 1-0 in the seventh inning.

Currently, the rain is coming down pretty hard so this was a crucial score as the Cubs would end up with the win if the game is suspended.

Victor Caratini added an insurance run with an RBI double scoring Descalso:
