Happ homers twice to send the Cubs to an 8-4 win and hand the Phillies their 10th loss in 12 games
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Ian Happ homered twice, including a two-run shot in the sixth inning that rallied the Chicago Cubs to an 8-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night. Dansby Swanson, Happ and Michael Busch each hit a solo shot off rookie Phillies starter Mick Abel. The 23-year-old Abel dazzled in his first two major league starts, with a 0.79 ERA and 11 strikeouts over 11 1/3 innings. He wasn't dominant in this one but kept the Phillies in the game. He had the bases loaded with two outs in the fourth but got Kyle Tucker to check-swing on his 89th pitch for strike three to end the threat. Abel has been a boost to a rotation that learned Aaron Nola wouldn't be able to throw the ball for at least two more weeks because of an injured rib. Nola had already been out since early May with a sprained right ankle. Max Kepler hit a two-run homer for Philadelphia in the second. The Phillies chased Colin Rea with one out in the fifth. Alec Bohm greeted Ryan Brasier with a two-run single to center for a 4-3 lead. Just as they surrendered a late lead a night earlier, the Phillies bullpen faltered once again. Happ's seventh homer off Taijuan Walker (2-5) — a two-out drive to right — put the Cubs ahead to stay. Walker was demoted to the bullpen after another tough start to the season. Caleb Thielbar (2-1) tossed a scoreless sixth for the win. The Cubs tacked on three runs in the eighth to send the Phillies to their 10th loss in 12 games. K ey moment Phillies center fielder Brandon Marsh, who hit the winning single in the 11th inning on Monday, was hampered by left elbow soreness and left in the top of the sixth. He was hit on the elbow on a tag in the second inning. Key stat It was Happ's 16th career multihomer game. Up next The Cubs send RHP Ben Brown (3-4, 5.37 ERA) to the mound against Phillies LHP Jesús Luzardo (5-2, 4.46 ERA) on Wednesday. ___ AP MLB:

Fans Saddened After Giants' Announcement Before Rockies Game
Fans Saddened After Giants' Announcement Before Rockies Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The San Francisco Giants (38-28) are close to passing baseball's Goliath. They're just 1.5 games behind the defending-champion Los Angeles Dodgers (40-27) for first place in the NL West despite having a nearly $100 million cheaper active (26-man) payroll, via Spotrac. Their total payroll allocations are also around $170 million less. Advertisement While the Dodgers rely on superstars like designated hitter Shohei Ohtani, infielder Mookie Betts, infielder Freddie Freeman, and starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the Giants are led by more unheralded players like outfielder Heliot Ramos, outfielder Jung Hoo Lee, and starting pitcher Robbie Ray. Ohtani leads the NL with 23 homers, while third baseman Matt Chapman tops San Francisco with 12. However, the Giants made an unfortunate announcement about the latter player before Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies (12-53) via their social media. San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman (26).Robert Edwards-Imagn Images They placed Chapman on the 10-day Injured List (retroactive to June 9) with right hand inflammation. Additionally, they recalled Christian Koss recalled from Triple-A Sacramento. Advertisement Chapman is slashing .243/.360/.452 with 30 RBI in 65 games this season. Fans aren't happy about the veteran's injury. "Nnnoooo" one said. "Brutal, one of the more underrated players in baseball," another said. "He's the 3B version of Francisco Lindor." "[Expletive] shoot me man," another said. "Sorry to hear about Chapman he will be missed! But Koss the slugger is back!!" another said. Koss is slashing .273/.338/.453 with 56 homers and 260 RBI in 451 career minor-league games. The 27-year-old made his MLB debut this season and is slashing .219/.275/.266 with one homer and eight RBI in 29 contests.
