Chicago Cubs gets spark from return of Swanson and Hoerner
CHICAGO â Nico Hoerner and Dansby Swanson wasted no time making their returns felt in the Chicago Cubs ' win Tuesday night over the Atlanta Braves.Swanson had two hits and Hoerner had the walk-off game-winner. Still, the team is battling through recent injures and scuffles at the plate.Cubs manager Craig Counsell said reliever Adbert Alzolay received a second opinion on his injured forearm, but the news was not positive for a return to the mound anytime soon.
So treat it conservatively and see where we're at in two weeks.'The Cubs won in walk-off fashion on Tuesday night, but it's not like the offense completely broke out of its recent slump, scoring only four runs in the 10-inning victory.Counsell is hopeful that a now-healthy Swanson will help create more offensive consistency.'I think in Dansby's case, I think he had gotten to a point where he was playing injured and it was affecting his performance,' Counsell said.
