As the rumors and speculations bubbles in Cubs land regarding the return of Addison Russell, Daniel Descalso is making his case to remain in the lineup and blasts a home run in the first inning. I am not a huge fan of his fielding style but he has been en fuego in the first month of the season offensively.
Cubs added another in the fourth with Almora singling in Bote but Hamels gave it all back in the bottom of the frame giving up 3.
The 2019 version of the Cubs battled back though. They didn't quite have the same type of fight in 2018, losing so many 1 run games. This year though, they battle every inning and Bryant doubles and then in brought in by Rizzo's homerun. Of course Seattle battled back and it was a seesaw battle for the rest of the game with Seattle going up on a homerun in the 7th.
Schwarber gets the Cubs back on top with a 2 run HR making the score 6-5.
That isn't even doing it justice, he MASHED it.
This Cubs team is scrappy and I like it! On to game 2 this afternoon in Seattle!
