That headline doesn’t work for some new Chicago law firm. Instead, it refers to one of baseball’s least known star pitchers, a catcher experiencing a renaissance in his career and one of baseball’s hottest hitters. They certainly had a bit of help, particularly from some patient Chicago hitters and some effective Cubs defense along the way. But those three were the stars in another win on the north side of Chicago. Though in fairness, this only brings the Cubs to dead even, 7-7, at home. Their early season success has occurred largely on the road.
We tackle the stars in order.
