The Cubs’ Miguel Amaya threw up his hands as he headed back to first base, having just given his team the lead in an eventual 3-1 win Satruday against the White Sox.

Before his two-run double, he’d already fouled pitches, one on a bunt attempt, in the at-bat. Behind in the count, he turned on a slider and drove it into shallow left field.

It was the first game of a four-game season series that didn’t end in a 7-6 Cubs win. And with the win, the Cubs swept the four-game Crosstown Classic across a pair of two-game series.
