Justin Steele has been pitching great for over a month without being rewarded for his work with a victory. He was very determined to avoid that outcome Friday afternoon, throwing a complete game to lead the Cubs to a win over the Angels at a sun-splashed Wrigley Field.
Seiya Suzuki put Chicago ahead in the opening inning with a two-run homer off Griffin Canning that got a helpful push from the wind that was blowing straight out to just reach the basket in center. Ian Happ stayed hot with an RBI single in the 3rd that made it a 3-0 score.
