As Seiya Suzuki goes, so go the Cubs, who broke out for a 21-0 victory over the Pirates Saturday.
The Cubs’ big-ticket free agent from Japan laughed after listening to the question translated then said through his interpreter: “The weather was great. The fans were awesome as well, a lot of passionate fans out there. It was really fun.”
Until then, the Cubs’ four-game losing streak entering the day coincided with a 1-for-11 stretch for him in those games — 1-for-10 with a walk and six strikeouts the last three games, following a three-walk game Tuesday. And Suzuki wasn’t the only Cubs suffering through some suppressed numbers during the low-scoring week against the Rays and Pirates.
One of them was Alfonso Rivas, who returned from a brief demotion to the minors, to hit the only homer of the game. Another was Nico Hoerner, who had four — making him 7-for-9 in his last two games.
