Busch hits game
CHICAGO (AP) — Michael Busch led off the ninth inning with a game-ending home run, Cody Bellinger went deep in his return from broken ribs and the Chicago Cubs beat the San Diego Padres 3-2 on Tuesday night.
Bellinger had three hits after missing two weeks. He gave the Cubs a 1-0 lead when he connected leading off the fourth against Randy Vásquez.
“I just wanted to make sure my swing was in a good spot,” Bellinger said. “It’s nice to see some results today.”
Shota Imanaga was in line to win his fifth straight start before the Padres broke through in the eighth.
He gave up a leadoff single to pinch hitter Luis Arraez before Jurickson Profar chased him with a two-run drive that just cleared the left-field wall. Cubs starters had gone four straight games without allowing a run — the first time in franchise history that happened in the same season, according to team historian Ed Hartig.
