The Chicago Cubs enter Game 2 of their series with the Oakland Athletics, seeking for an encore performance of their 18-run game in Game 1 on Monday.

Carson Kelly delivered a cycle to propel the Cubs to a rousing 18-3 win over the Athletics. Kelly went 4 for 4 with five RBIs, while Michael James Busch drove in four runs. Chicago also got 3 RBIs each from Kyle Tucker and Dansby Swanson.

Joey Estes suffered one of his worst losses of his baseball career, allowing six earned runs with three runs in four innings. The Athletics entered the series-opener vs. the Cubs with a top-3 ERA after giving up three runs in the previous series with the Mariners.
