The Chicago Cubs triumphed over the White Sox with a significant 13-3 win, largely thanks to Pete Crow-Armstrong's three-run homer driven by a favorable wind. Crow-Armstrong not only set new franchise records with his early-season achievements but also contributed to a six-run second inning. His exceptional start, combined with Cade Horton's strong pitching debut, culminated in the Cubs' largest victory margin against the Sox. Manager Craig Counsell expressed enthusiasm over Crow-Armstrong's progression in his season, noting his burgeoning prowess on the field.
"That's kind of one of those blackout moments. Like, I knew I had enough, but the wind - best friend. That was nice."
"Pete Crow-Armstrong became the first player in franchise history to record at least 12 home runs, 30 RBIs and 10 stolen bases in the first 45 games of a season."
