Cubs Crush Brewers with Happ's Homer

The Cubs crushed the Brewers 8-2, with Ian Happ launching a game-sealing three-run homer and Seiya Suzuki and Michael Conforto also going deep. Rookie lefty David Peterson overcame a rough start—giving up a home run on his first pitch—to deliver a solid win. The Cubs’ offense exploded in the sixth, fueled by Nico Hoerner’s RBI and Happ’s blast, while the pitching staff held Milwaukee scoreless after the fifth. Despite tying it at two in the fifth, the Brewers couldn’t keep up, as Chicago closes the gap in the division after a brutal losing streak against Milwaukee.
