De La Cruz went 2-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 6-4 win over the Cubs.
De La Cruz singled, stole a base and scored a run in the first inning. The steal was his 27th of the season and moved him closer to what would be his first 30-homer, 30-steal season. A recent homer binge -- seven over the last 13 contests -- puts that achievement within reach with eight games left in the regular season.
