Chicago (A) 1, Arizona 7
Ryne Nelson tossed an excellent outing, allowing only one run through six innings. The offense also showed up, with only Marte and Walker failing to record a hit and only Walker failing to reach base. All told, the offensive contribution from the likes of Eugenio Suarez and Tucker Barnhart totaled a beat-down of the lowly Southsiders.
