IAN HAPP NEWS

Blasts ninth home run Happ went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Orioles.

Impact The Cubs only mustered two runs, and Happ accounted for half of them in the first inning with his ninth home run of the season through 85 games. The outfielder hit a career-best 25 long balls last year, so he'll have to really get going if he wants to reach or surpass that figure. However, he's having a strong year overall with a .276 average and .824 OPS so far.

Reaches twice in loss Happ went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Happ was also caught stealing, the first time he'd been nabbed on the basepaths since June 19. The outfielder has only attempted two stolen bases since then and has attempted nine steals all season (successful on six of them), so speed isn't a huge part of his game, but he can run when needed. Happ has been fairly productive overall with a .282/.378/.454 slash line, eight home runs, 38 RBI and 38 runs scored across 81 games.
