Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki played an important part in Chicago’s offensive explosion on Wednesday, hitting two home runs and finishing the game with five RBI.

The Cubs’ 5-4 record places them second in the NL Central behind the St. Louis Cardinals.

The Cubs return to action on Friday as they begin a three-game series against the San Diego Padres at Wrigley Field. First pitch is set for 1:20 p.m. CT.

Cubs’ Carson Kelly makes history 

For the first time in 32 years, a member of the Chicago Cubs has hit for the cycle. In the Cubs’ 18-3 win over the Athletics on Tuesday, Carson Kelly ended the drought.

“I’ve been in this same position before where I needed a triple for the cycle. If anybody’s ever looked up my numbers, I have two triples, so odds are not in my favor, right?” the 30-year-old Kelly said via AP. “I didn’t get it done the first time.

“This time I’m like, oh, I’m just going to put a good at-bat together. Hit it, like, ‘Oh yeah, pretty good.’ Then I hit first and saw it ricochet and I was like, ‘Oh boy, this is it right here, I gotta go.’ That’s probably the fastest you’ll ever see me run.”

Cubs manager Craig Counsell did not realize Kelly had a chance at one, but was glad he managed to capitalize.

“I didn’t realize he had a chance at a cycle, but when that ball kicked off the wall the dugout started going crazy so I figured something was going on,” Counsell said. “They’re fun days, they’re rare days and they’re once-in-a-lifetime-type days for players.”
