The Rundown: Schwarber Impresses in First MLB Start, Wada Rebounds, Zac Rosscup to DL and Yoervis Medina Up, Neil Ramirez Makes First Rehab Appearance

Well, last night’s game sure was something. Where to start in a 17-0 win that featured tons of home runs, great defensive plays, and not one — but two — position players pitching?

How about Kyle Schwarber’s night? The Cubs’ next big hitting prospect got his first MLB start and did not disappoint.

Serving as the designated hitter, all he did was go 4-for-5, with a triple, three runs and two RBIs. The triple, his first MLB hit, was a shot down he first-base line but probably should’ve been handled by Carlos Santana — but that’s OK.
