Danny Hultzen made his long-awaited big league debut, striking out three in a scoreless frame. It was an awesome moment. Jason Heyward wrecked one in the 9th and has kinda been hitting the ball hard again lately.
You are now caught up on just about everything good from this game.
Jon Lester got blown up, the Cubs’ bats shrank to nothingness after getting a few bouncers to fall in, Addison Russell got hit in the head and might be out, Kris Bryant couldn’t play because of his knee, and the Cubs lost 3 of 4 to the team chasing them in the Central while also losing a couple more games of ground to the team ahead of them in the Central. It’s all just quite awful.
