Quick takes: Cubs show no rust in return, avoid Mike Clevinger to beat Indians

The Cubs didn’t seem to have any rust to shake off on Tuesday, despite an unexpected break over the weekend.

The Cubs beat the Indians 7-1 in their return to Progressive Field, the ballpark where they claimed the 2016 World Series title.

Before the game, Cubs manager David Ross set up his pregame Zoom session with reporters in the visiting manager’s office. It was the same room where former Cubs manager Joe Maddon sat Ross down to talk about the then-backup catcher's role for Game 7 of the World Series.
