First baseman Anthony Rizzo launched home run’s No. 13 and 14 but the Chicago Cubs would fall 7-2 at the hands of veteran pitcher Phil Hughes and the second-place Minnesota Twins.

Tonight featured some of the top prospects squaring off, three of them taking the field for the visiting team. Out of all four, Addison Russell was the only one who was able to record a hit, finishing 1-for-4 while Kris Bryant and Byron Buxton finished 0-for-4 and Kyle Schwarber was hit-less in three at-bats as Chicago’s designated hitter.
