The Chicago Cubs delivered a series sweep against the Los Angeles Angels, thanks in part to the offensive heroics of Kyle Tucker.

Tucker had been in the midst of a career-worst slump for the previous seven weeks before the series in Anaheim. Over the 39-game stretch, where it was revealed that Tucker was dealing with a hairline fracture in his finger, the 28-year-old slashed .184/.321/.228 with just one home run and 10 RBI.

But Tucker broke through the slump against the Angels' pitching staff, smacking three home runs, five hits, and seven runs batted in during the three-game sweep.
