Summary
Michael Busch made history with a jaw-dropping three-run homer into McCovey Cove, becoming just the fifth Cub ever to do so at Oracle Park—and the first since 2021. The ball, caught by a fan in a kayak, sparked a 5-1 win and showcased Busch’s breakout season, especially against lefties. Backed by Seiya Suzuki’s RBI double, Nico Hoerner’s sacrifice fly, and Javier Assad’s stellar six-inning shutout anchored by his deadly sinker, the Cubs snapped a losing streak with two straight wins—and eyes are already on Saturday’s chance to make it three.
