Chicago Cubs Dominate Washington Nationals: Cade Horton Shines, Ian Happ Hits Homer
The Chicago Cubs secured a victory over the Washington Nationals, 10-2, on Saturday. Cade Horton, the 24-year-old righty, pitched four-hit ball into the seventh inning for his first win. Ian Happ hit a three-run homer in the sixth to secure the win. Miquel Amaya and Happ also contributed with homers and RBIs. The Cubs relievers kept the Nationals scoreless after Hortons exit. The Nationals shortstop, CJ Abrams, missed the game due to a family loss, and Miles Mikolas struggled, giving up six runs in five innings. The Cubs took an early lead with smart hitting and Nationals fielding errors. Despite the Nationals late rally, the Cubs maintained their lead. The series concludes on Sunday with the Cubs Shota Imanaga facing the Nationals Jake Irvin.

MLB Baseball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Cubs Crush Nationals 10-2, Horton Shines. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
It's March 28th. Welcome in. This is MLB News Today, where baseball meets AI. Miami-Marlins just put infielder Christopher Morel on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain. This came right after he got scratched from their season opener against Colorado on Friday, even though he was in the starting lineup. The team signed the 26-year-old to a one-year deal in the offseason, banking on his power at the plate to boost their lineup. Morel brings solid pop from his first four pro seasons with the cubs and rays, smashing 74 home runs total, including a career high, 26 back in 2023. To fill the gap, Marlins recalled infielder Davieson De Los Santos from Triple A Jacksonville, with the move retroactive to Wednesday. Early season setbacks like this test the team's depth, but Miami's pushing forward into a long grind ahead.
