Chatwood threw against the Pirates and went 6.2 inings allowing three hits, two walks and 11 strikeouts. In his second start, Chatwod went six innings against the Brewers throwing a three-hitter with two walks and eight strikeouts. This time around he only went 2.1 innings, allowing 11 hits and giving up eight runs. He didn't allow a walk and had four strikeouts.
Meanwhile, Kansas City jumped on him early scoring a run in the first, two in the second and five in the third before Chatwood exited the game.
The Cubs' only two runs came in the top of the ninth and six players had a single each. Victor Caratini had two singles and drove in a run. Nico Hoerner also drove in a run.
Effiingham's Danny Winkler made an appearance on the mound going one inning, allowing one hit, one run, one walk and striking out one.
Chicago drops to 10-3 on the season and were headed to St. Louis for a three-game series today, Saturday and Sunday, but more Cardinals players have been diagnosed with COVID-19, so today's game has been postponed.
Brewers' Yelich Hits Inside-the-Park Home Run
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich hit an inside-the-park home run -- the first of his career -- in the Brewers' 8-3 win over the Chicago White Sox Thursday night.
Yelich was able to score the run in the fifth inning after a misplay by Chicago left fielder Eloy Jimenez. The inside-the-park home run was the 30th in Brewers' franchise history.
