Thanks to a nearly flawless game from Jon Lester and an offense that pummeled Mariners’ pitching, the Cubs beat Seattle 11-0 to take both games of the two-game set. Willson Contreras borrowed Thor’s hammer from Kyle Schwarber and launched a 440-foot home run of his own that looked like a laser beam.

Despite great performances from most of the team’s key regulars, it was an electric 9th inning from reliever Dillon Maples that really punctuated the victory.
