Cade Horton tosses 2-hit ball over 5 innings as Cubs beat Orioles 1-0
The Cubs showed a video tribute of Ryne Sandberg and held 23 seconds of silence prior to their first home game since the Hall of Famer died. Former teammates Shawon Dunston, Jody Davis and Rick Sutcliffe then honored their friend by carrying a base onto the field and placing it at second.
A few hours earlier, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced the 2027 All-Star Game will be held at Wrigley Field during a news conference at home plate with Chicago Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts, Gov. JB Pritzker and mayor Brandon Johnson.
Ian Happ hit a sacrifice fly in the second inning against Rogers, and the Cubs started the weekend series on a winning note after losing two of three at Milwaukee. They began the day trailing the NL Central-leading Brewers by one game.
Horton delivered his third straight scoreless outing.
Caleb Thielbar, newcomer Andrew Kittredge and Brad Keller each worked an inning. Daniel Palencia pitched around a two-out double by Adley Rutschman in the ninth, retiring Tyler O'Neill on a fly to deep left for his 15th save in 16 chances.
Rogers was a tough-luck loser for Baltimore. The left-hander matched a career high by going eight innings and allowed one run and four hits. He struck out eight and walked none.
Carson Kelly singled leading off the second, took third on Pete Crow-Armstrong's double to deep center and scored on Happ's sacrifice fly.
Horton has gone 17 2/3 innings without allowing a run.
The Cubs send All-Star LHP Matthew Boyd to the mound, and the Orioles go with RHP Tomoyuki Sugano . ___

Her team, the Indiana Fever, is set to take on the Seattle Storm. Clark suffered an injury late in the Fever's win over the Connecticut Sun on July 15, 2025. According to CBS Sports, she does not have an official return timeline. The Fever, in an update released on July 24, 2025, said that Clark "underwent further medical evaluations, which confirmed that no additional injuries or damage were discovered."The team further stated that Clark will "continue working with the medical team on her recovery and rehabilitation, with the priority on her long-term health and well-being," according to CBS Sports. After the match on Sunday, the Fever are set to resume their four-game road trip to begin August with matchups against the Los Angeles Sparks and Phoenix Mercury. It's unclear if Clark will be cleared while they're away from home. Following a historic Rookie of the Year season, Clark's sophomore campaign has been badly affected due to injuries.

She also missed out on the Commissioner's Cup championship and All-Star weekend in her adopted home city of Indianapolis. Speaking to Glamour over All-Star weekend, Clark said, "This is the first time I haven't felt like a young body that can run around and sprint every day and just continue to do that." "Being a professional athlete, you really have to take care of both your body and your mind; it's been a journey learning about that." Clark has made just 7 of 49 three-point attempts over her last seven games and has gone without a three in three different matchups. This season, she's shooting 36.7% from the field and just 27.9% from beyond the arc. Despite her shooting struggles, Clark is still averaging 16.5 points, 5 rebounds, and 8.8 assists per game, ranking second in the 16-12 Fever struggled when Clark was out earlier in the season, but they've now won four straight games without her, going into Sunday, moving up to fifth place in the standings.
