Clay Holmes Thrives in Cubs’ Offensive Fire | Chicago Cubs News

Clay Holmes is thriving with the Cubs, turning his trade from the Mets into a breakout moment as he pitches in front of a historic offense that’s crushing records and energizing Wrigley Field. In a 17-run, nine-homer demolition of the Brewers, Holmes shut down Milwaukee for six innings, striking out eight while allowing zero runs — all part of an August surge where Chicago led MLB in runs (178) and homers (62). Since joining the team, Holmes has posted a stellar 1.55 ERA in five starts, perfectly complementing the Cubs’ offensive explosion as they chase a deep postseason run.
