Cubs' Seiya Suzuki Breaks Slump with 27th Home Run Against Reds

News summary

Seiya Suzuki broke out of a recent slump with a strong performance in the Cubs' 6-1 victory over the Reds, hitting his 27th home run of the season and tying for the team lead. Suzuki went 2-for-2 with two RBIs and a walk after a rare day off, which appeared to help him reset after struggling since the All-Star break. Cubs starter Cade Horton pitched 5 2/3 scoreless innings, extending his streak of scoreless innings and securing the win. Chicago’s bullpen maintained the lead, with Daniel Palencia earning his 16th save, while the Cubs' offense was further bolstered by solo home runs from Dansby Swanson and Ian Happ. The win kept the Cubs in contention for a Wild Card spot, preventing a Reds sweep and maintaining their position ahead of Cincinnati in the standings. Earlier in the week, Suzuki was given a rest to recover from his slump, with Kyle Tucker and Willi Castro stepping in during his absence.
