Suzuki’s Slam, Bregman’s 2-Run Homer Power Cubs to a 9-3 Win over the Rockies
Suzuki hit his third career grand slam and Bregman added a two-run homer as Chicago snapped a three-game skid.
On Thursday, the Chicago Cubs snapped a three-game skid with a 9-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies, powered by Seiya Suzuki's third career grand slam and home runs from Alex Bregman and Carson Kelly.
Chicago starter Edward Cabrera limited Colorado to two runs on five hits over 5 1/3 innings, while Rockies starter Ryan Feltner allowed six runs in just 4 1/3 innings.
Cubs manager Craig Counsell was ejected in the sixth inning after arguing a call, while Colorado's Brett Sullivan hit two home runs and Cole Carrigg added a 418-foot solo shot.
Chicago's nine-run output marked its highest offensive production since beating Pittsburgh 10-4 on May 27, breaking a slump where the team scored three or fewer runs in seven of its last nine games.
The Cubs travel to San Francisco for today's series opener, where Chicago has yet to announce a starter to face Giants RHP Landon Roupp .
