Summary
The Cubs snapped their ten-game skid with a 7-2 win in Pittsburgh and head to St. Louis for their first matchup of the season, where Jordan Wicks gets another shot despite a rough outing—now working on mechanics to regain consistency. Meanwhile, the White Sox are off to a strong start against Detroit, with rookie Munetaka Murakami smashing his 20th homer (a modern rookie record before June) and David Sandlin retiring 18 straight batters in his debut, calling it “muscle memory.” Both teams are also moving forward with injury updates: Matt Shaw nearing rehab and Edward Cabrera throwing bullpen sessions.
