Column: Seiya Suzuki leads power surge with 2 of Chicago Cubs' 5 home runs in 6-1 rout of Detroit Tigers
DETROIT — The language barrier between Seiya Suzuki and his teammates disappears on days like Saturday at Comerica Park, where the Japanese slugger hit two home runs to lead the Chicago Cubs to a 6-1 win over the Detroit Tigers. No interpretation was necessary in the Cubs dugout after five home run celebrations. 'Happiness after home runs — that's great and universal,' Pete Crow-Armstrong said. Crow-Armstrong, Michael Busch and Matt Shaw added to the home run barrage as the Cubs evened the series before a second straight sellout of 41,084, which included thousands of road-tripping Cubs fans. They managed only seven hits on the day, including an infield hit by Nico Hoerner, but made all of them count. 'We hit some homers today and didn't do much else,' manager Craig Counsell said. 'But homers are good. You get five homers, that's a pretty good day.' A quick fact-check confirmed Counsell's statement: Home runs are good. So is dominant starting pitching, and Jameson Taillon threw seven strong innings, allowing one run on three hits while improving to 6-3 with his fourth straight win. The Cubs have not lost two straight games since a three-game skid on May 6-9 against the San Francisco Giants and New York Mets. 'We make ourselves a tough beat, and I think we've done that pretty darn regularly,' Counsell said. 'And that's going to put you on top a good amount of the time.' The Cubs are 18-7 over their last 25 games, the best record in the majors in that span, and go for the series win Sunday with rookie Cade Horton facing Jack Flaherty. Suzuki started the Cubs off with a solo home run in the first off left-hander Tyler Holton, the Tigers opener. Busch added a two-run shot off Keider Montero in the fifth, his 10th of the season, giving the Cubs five players with 10 or more home runs in only 64 games. The Cubs led 3-1 in the seventh when Crow-Armstrong cranked his 17th and Shaw hit his second. Suzuki added his second of the game off Chase Lee in the eighth. The competition between Suzuki and Crow-Armstrong has been an interesting sidebar to a season in which both could be headed to the All-Star Game. Suzuki took the RBI lead 55-54 on Saturday, but Crow-Armstrong remains ahead 17-16 in their home run battle. 'Pete was saying he was the power leader of the team,' Suzuki said through an interpreter. Crow-Armstrong countered that Suzuki challenged him after his first home run. 'I let him know today that he had to hit two, and I've still got him, so …' Crow-Armstrong said. 'Seiya says when he hits a home run, I have to as well. If that turns into real motivation, it's great.' Suzuki said Crow-Armstrong likes to pat him on the head, then added it's obvious who has the most power of the two 'if you look at his body.' He likes to consider their relationship like an adult and a child. 'Everything Pete does is like a little kid, so Pete is like my little brother,' he said. Crow-Armstrong strongly disagreed. 'That's up for debate,' he said. 'We can work that out behind closed doors.' The win was big after Friday's 3-1 loss, in which a poor decision by third-base coach Quintin Berry to send Crow-Armstrong home in a scoreless game against Tarik Skubal backfired. Berry quickly changed his mind and held Crow-Armstrong up at third, leading to Crow-Armstrong being tagged out and squelching a potential rally against the game's best pitcher. It was a pivotal play and a tough loss that could've lingered had the Cubs let it. 'It was a unique play, the way it went down,' Counsell said Saturday. 'Pete is a unique runner. So I think you talk about it, you learn from it and it helps you get better the next time.' The Cubs responded with a well-played game and got another huge performance from Taillon, the leader of a rotation that has endured a few bumps but has been fairly consistent since Shota Imanaga was sidelined on May 5 with a hamstring strain. Matthew Boyd has a 3.01 ERA this season and 40 strikeouts to only three walks over his last six starts. Colin Rea rebounded in Washington from back-to-back subpar outings against the Cincinnati Reds and has allowed two or fewer runs in seven of his 10 starts. The Cubs have won in all of Horton's five appearances, including his debut in New York that included an opener. Ben Brown threw seven strong innings Friday in a tense duel with Skubal and has turned in his best two outings since Counsell used an opener for him last week at Wrigley Field. Taillon has morphed into the Cubs ace since the injury to Imanaga, who threw a bullpen Saturday at the team's complex in Mesa, Ariz. Imanaga will pitch in a game setting Monday in Arizona in hopes of returning later this month. The arrow is pointing up for the Cubs, who beat up on bad teams the last three weeks and have played well against baseball's best team in Detroit. Taillon said the atmosphere the last two days at Comerica has been something to see, though he pointed to the calendar in an effort to curb Cubs fans' enthusiasm. 'Obviously I've played in Detroit a lot and I've never seen the stadium like this with this kind of energy, which is really cool,' Taillon said. 'In that sense it's cool that it's two great teams going up against each other. But it's also June. 'Every series does count the same, but it's been a fun environment. It was a beautiful day at the park today. It was popping.' And when it's popping, the Cubs come ready to bop.

This Influencer Had Her Camaro ZL1 Stolen Ahead of Diecast Release Event
On Saturday afternoon, Autumn Spooner, an Arizona-based content creator, was scheduled to attend a car meet to promote her custom diecast of her beloved, metallic purple-wrapped 2018 Camaro ZL1. Unfortunately, the night before the meet at 4:19 PST, her car was stolen. Spooner was boarding her flight when she got the news that her car had been stolen after being dropped off in Costa Mesa, California. She shared the news with her followers across her social media channels. "My Camaro got stolen today," Spooner said. "I was on the flight to come here and pick it up, and as I was boarding my plane, I got a call that my Camaro was stolen, which definitely was not the call I wanted to get, ever. That's all I know as of right now." Several photos and videos have been shared with Spooner and authorities of the car being driven around Southern California, unwrapped to make it harder to track down. While the thieves took the time to unwrap the car, remove the plates, the dash cam, and the OnStar. They kept her Instagram handle displayed. "You guys have seen it out on the road a few times," Spooner said. "Last I knew, it was unwrapped; they literally took the whole wrap off. No plate on it, but they did leave my Instagram handle. Love that for me." The event, Homecoming 3, was intended to be a celebration of the car that got Spooner into auto content creation, as she unveiled a 1:24-scale die-cast of her car for purchase through Jada Toys. Jada Toys shared on Facebook, offering condolences to Spooner and providing information about the theft for those in the area. We want to send our deepest apologies to [Autumn Spooner], as we regret to inform everyone that her Camaro was stolen in Costa Mesa, California, during our setup for Homecoming 3. Spooner shared an update on her Instagram story that she might skip the event as she continues to deal with the aftermath of her stolen vehicle.

$150K Camaro stolen from influencer during Southern California event
An influencer's celebration of her custom car being turned into a die-cast model quickly turned to panic as the vehicle that inspired it all – a custom $150,000 Chevy Camaro – was stolen at a local event. Autumn Spooner is an automotive influencer who flew in to SoCal to celebrate and promote the launch of a die-cast replica of her custom real-life Chevy Camaro ZL1. Her prized possession was stolen on Friday evening while it was being displayed in the parking lot at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, according to a spokesperson for Spooner. She had left it in the care of Jada Toys, a brand that was displaying the car as part of the launch, the spokesperson said. 'This was meant to be a milestone moment for Autumn, as her real-life ZL1 inspired the release of a die-cast replica,' the spokesperson added. 'Instead, it's become a nightmare…no formal agreement was signed transferring liability, and the situation has left her devastated and without answers.' Spooner herself posted a video to Instagram to clarify the situation, saying she was 'literally on the plane' to California when she received the gut-wrenching news. 'Basically, I transported it [to California] and got [to Costa Mesa] around 2 p.m.,' she said in the video, which was posted late Friday night. 'As I was boarding the plane, I got a call that my Camaro was stolen, which definitely was not the call I wanted to get.' Posts to Spooner's Instagram story allegedly show the car being driven eastbound on the 91 Freeway near the interchange with the 57 Freeway. The Camaro, which she had wrapped in purple, had been unwrapped and the license plate removed; however, according to Spooner, her Instagram handle was left on the car. A video previously posted by Spooner, who has more than half a million followers across her social media platforms, indicated that the die-cast model was part of Jada Toys' Pink Slips line, and the toy maker's website states that the car, a 1:24 scale model, becomes available for pre-order on Saturday afternoon. That said, the $25 model was already sold out by 7 a.m. Saturday. Spooner's Instagram bio states she is an Arizona resident who, in addition to the Camaro ZL1, also owns a BMW G80 M3 and a BMW E36 M3. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
