Summary
Two Cubs prospects, Josiah Hartshorn and Mason McGwire, lit up the All-Star Futures Game—Hartshorn, a 19-year-old power hitter who’s already smashing homers and rooming with McGwire, and McGwire, the son of baseball legend Mark McGwire, who battled injury but returned with fire and focus. Both players soaked in the electric atmosphere of Citizens Bank Park, with Hartshorn calling it a blessing and McGwire joking about facing his dad’s prime form. Even fellow prospect Caleb Bonemer got a thrill, comparing the experience to a video game and soaking in praise from Kenny Lofton.
