Cubs Come Back Late to Clip Tigers
The Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers obliged fans looking for a good time.

Dansby Swanson added some punch to the Chicago offense, helping them outmuscle the Detroit Tigers, 8-7. In the game, Swanson, who finished 3rd in the NL in runs with 49 in 2020, was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Chicago reliever Brandon Hughes was credited with the win, to go to 7-4. Erik Swanson took the loss for Detroit.

Chicago took a 8-7 lead on Yan Gomes's 22nd double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Gomes hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Detroit pitcher Erik Swanson visibly frustrated.

"I'm trying to keep it simple," said Gomes. "Just do my job."

The Cubs now have a record of 71-56 with the win over Detroit.
