Baseball: Suzuki blasts 24th homer among 3 hits as Cubs rout Brewers
CHICAGO (Kyodo) -- Seiya Suzuki had three hits, including his 24th home run of the season, as the Chicago Cubs routed the Milwaukee Brewers 17-3 on Mo
On Monday, Seiya Suzuki netted three hits, including his 24th home run of the season, as the Chicago Cubs dominated the Milwaukee Brewers with a 17-3 victory at Wrigley Field. The Japanese-born slugger's solo shot to center field in the fourth inning was part of a nine-home run performance by the Cubs, setting a new single-game club record.
Suzuki, who had a strong fastball, expressed his determination to continue improving, stating, "If I'm satisfied with the status quo, my baseball career is over. I need to keep pushing myself every day to get better." Despite going hitless, Chicago White Sox rookie Munetaka Murakami contributed an RBI as the Cubs secured the win, while Kodai Senga recorded his fifth save by pitching a flawless ninth inning in relief for the New York Mets, who edged the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2.
