Cubs rookie Christopher Morel has homered in three straight games and looks to keep up the run when he faces Boston at Wrigley Field. The 23-year-old Morel connected Friday night for a two-run drive as Chicago rallied past the Red Sox. Morel got five hits, including a home run, on Thursday in a romp over Cincinnati.
Christopher Morel got a belt-high pitch and launched it toward Waveland Avenue for a long two-run homer. Morel homered in his third consecutive game, and the Chicago Cubs rallied to beat the Boston Red Sox 6-5 on Friday. The Cubs took advantage of 10 walks by five pitchers and came back after falling behind 4-0.
The Cubs won't be making the playoffs, and the pitching staff is awful. But Chicago can certainly hit, and Wrigley Field remains a gem. Scott Pianowski has a closer look.
