Connects on homer Baez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a strikeout as the Cubs defeated the Dodgers 4-0 on Thursday.
Impact Baez opened the scoring in the first with his 401-foot blast to center off Walker Buehler, which would be all the support Zach Davies would need as the starter and three Chicago relievers combined to throw a no-hitter. Despite the long ball, Baez is still mired in a June slump as he's now 8-for-62 this month, though half of those hits are home runs.

Expects to return Tuesday Baez (thumb) expects to be available off the bench Monday against the Mets and hopes to return to the lineup Tuesday, Russell Dorsey of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Baez battled thumb soreness throughout last week, missing a total of four games. He'll miss another one to start this week, but the issue doesn't appear to be particularly serious and a trip to the injured list doesn't seem to be on the cards.

Scratched with thumb issue Manager David Ross said Baez was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Cardinals because of thumb soreness, Gordon Wittenmyer of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Baez missed three games last week because of the thumb issue before returning for the first two games of the weekend series against St. Louis. Unfortunately, the thumb soreness has returned for the shortstop, so Ross will play it safe by taking him out of Sunday's starting nine. It's currently unknown if he could appear off the bench in the series finale and he can be considered day-to-day going forward.
