Horton shines, Cubs hit two solo homers in 4-1 victory over Blue Jays
Chicago Cubs pitcher Cade Horton (22) works against the Blue Jays during the first inning of a Major League Baseball game in Toronto on Wednesday, August 13, 2025. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan Denette TORONTO — Michael Busch and Matt Shaw hit solo homers and Chicago starter Cade Horton was dominant as the Cubs defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 4-1 on Wednesday night at Rogers Centre. Toronto starter Kevin Gausman gave up Busch's 23rd homer of the year in the third inning. Shaw followed two innings later with his 10th of the season. Horton (7-3), one of the top rookies in the National League this season, held the Blue Jays (70-51) without a hit until Andres Gimenez singled with one out in the sixth inning. The right-hander retired the first 10 Blue Jays in order before walking Bo Bichette in the fourth. Horton was pulled after issuing a two-out walk to Bichette in the sixth. Reliever Andrew Kittredge gave up an RBI double to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. before retiring Addison Barger on a flyout. Chicago catcher Miguel Amaya was taken off the field on a cart in the eighth inning. He appeared to injure his left leg as he lunged for first base while beating out an infield single. The Cubs (68-51) tacked on two insurance runs later in the frame. Daniel Palencia worked a clean ninth inning for his 16th save. Gausman (8-9) allowed three hits and two earned runs over seven innings. He had three strikeouts and one walk. Chicago outhit Toronto 6-2. A sellout crowd of 43,120 took in the game, which took two hours 27 minutes to play. KEY MOMENT Blue Jays third-base coach Carlos Febles held Bichette at third base on Guerrero's double into the left-field corner. A night earlier, Ty France was thrown out at the plate after testing Ian Happ's arm in left field. KEY STAT The lone Toronto run was charged to Horton, ending his scoreless streak at 28 2/3 innings. He had eight strikeouts. JOJO MOJO Shortstop JoJo Parker said he's settling in nicely at the Blue Jays' player development complex after being selected by Toronto with the eighth overall pick in the MLB Draft last month. 'I've never had a hitting coach. I've never had a fielding coach,' Parker said on a video call. 'So I'm really excited to get involved with the coaches here.' The 19-year-old Mississippi high schooler was MLB Pipeline's ninth-ranked prospect in the 2025 draft class. UP NEXT The teams will close out the three-game interleague series on Thursday afternoon. Right-hander Max Scherzer (2-2, 4.21 earned-run average) was tabbed to start for the Blue Jays against left-hander Matthew Boyd (11-5, 2.45).

Two homers aside, Gausman sharp but outduelled by red-hot Cubs rookie
Hits and runs were sparse on Wednesday night at the Rogers Centre, in what turned out to be a very good game between the Blue Jays and the visiting Chicago Cubs. Article content Kevin Gausman and rookie Cade Horton engaged in a taut pitchers duel that the Cubs would prevail in, 4-1, counter-punching after the Jays took the series opener of this highly anticipated three-game set on Tuesday. Article content Article content The Jays' bats were silenced by Horton and failed to manufacture any threat. When only two hits are produced, while an opponent hits two solo homers, the margin gets pretty thin. Article content In their final at-bats, against Cubs closer Daniel Palencia, the Jays went quietly into the night, deserving of their fate as their record dropped to 70-51. Article content The following are three takeaways on a night when the Jays outdrew their season-high attendance from Tuesday night by attracting 43,120, witnessed an ugly injury when Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya tumbled over first base and was carted off the field; and maintained their 4.5-game lead in the AL East as the second-place Red Sox also lost. Article content TWO MISTAKES COSTLY Article content There wasn't much to find fault with in Gausman's performance as he provided his team with a quality outing — seven complete innings of three-hit ball. Article content The only problem was that two of those three hits left the yard as Michael Busch and Matt Shaw tagged him for solo home runs in the third and fifth innings, respectively. He also managed just three strikeouts. Article content Article content The one thing about Gausman is he will battle and his outing against the Cubs was no exception. He pitched into the seventh inning in a 2-1 game and looked as locked in as he did in the first. Article content First time through the order and Horton was well-deserving of an A-plus rating. Article content He entered the night having pitched a Cubs rookie record 23.2 scoreless innings, a stretch in which he surrendered just 10 hits. Article content In facing the order for the first time, Horton struck out five, while inducing four groundouts as his compact windup and delivery may have been difficult to pick up at first view. Article content The Jays finally had their first base-runner when Horton walked Bichette with one out in the fourth inning. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. then tagged him for a long fly ball to left that was caught at the warning track. Horton then struck out Addison Barger for the third out. Article content Horton's no-hit bid ended on an 0-2 count in the sixth inning when Andres Gimenez sent a ball up the middle for a one-out single.
