Donovan’s home run stood as the Cardinals only hit in this game until Jon Berti came in to pitch the ninth inning. They were down by seven runs in the blink of an eye and never put up a fight. An incredible start to the season by Donovan gave way to a rough June where he only had a .626 OPS.

The phrase “taking your lumps” was invented for games like this one. Mikolas gave up four home runs to the first seven batters of the game and six long balls in total. The Cubs teed off on him and there wasn’t a single moment where they didn’t seem comfortable in the box and ready to attack. Mikolas will take an ugly 5.26 ERA into his next scheduled start against the Nationals.

There haven’t been any rumblings about any sort of injury for Hoskins, but this is the second time that he has found himself on the pine in the team’s last four ballgames. Jake Bauers will start in his place at first base and bat seventh against Marlins’ right-hander Sandy Alcantara.

Busch homered in each of his first two at-bats off Miles Mikolas as the Cubs set a franchise record with eight long balls. Seven of them were hit in the first three innings and Busch’s first two were absolutely crushed. They combined to travel 836 feet and each came against fastballs that were grooved right down the middle. Then, he hit a cheapie in the seventh inning off John King, but never got another plate appearance for a chance at what would’ve been a historic fourth homer. All four of his batted balls were hit at least 103 mph and he’s quietly been one of the best hitters in the National League to this point with 19 home runs, 59 RBI, and a .919 OPS. Overall, this has been an incredible breakout season for the 27-year-old first baseman.
