Chourio has two hits, including home run vs. Twins
Jackson Chourio went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, two runs scored, and three RBI in an 8-7 win over the Twins on Sunday. It feels like Chourio has finally arrived. His home run was a towering shot to tie this game up in the seventh inning and the longest blast of his career so far. He also scalded an RBI double earlier and hit both of these balls in play at least 107.7 MPH. His OPS is above .700 for the first time since April 20th and he’s slashing .311/.368/.476 over his last 30 games.
Hoerner has productive games vs. Diamondbacks
Nico Hoerner doubled and scored in the ninth and worked a bases-loaded walk in the 10th as the Cubs came back to defeat the Diamondbacks 2-1 Sunday. The Cubs had just one hit over eight innings before Hoerner’s shot down the right field line got things started in the ninth. Seiya Suzuki went on to single him in afterwards. The 10th was a complete mess for the Diamondbacks, featuring a leadoff intentional walk and then a bunt single because of some indecisive defense on an attempt sacrifice. To tell the truth, Hoerner didn’t even have to work the five-pitch walk; only the 3-0 pitch was anywhere close to the strike zone.
