Bregman’s Triple HRs Power Cubs’ Comeback | MLB News

Alex Bregman crushed three homers and drove in seven runs, powering the Cubs to a 12-6 rout of the Nationals — their 37th comeback win this season. The Cubs’ offense exploded in the fifth inning or later, extending their road win streak to nine games. Pitchers David Peterson and Javier Assad combined for a complete game, with Assad earning the save. Bregman’s second-half surge continues, hitting over .300 with power — exactly what the Cubs hoped for. Seiya Suzuki is also on fire, playing elite defense and swinging harder than ever, slotting in as a major threat between Bregman and Crow-Armstrong. The Cubs look to sweep the series today with Kevin Gausman on the mound — a pitcher the Nationals haven’t faced much lately, giving Chicago a potential edge.
