Chicago Cubs gets spark from return of Swanson, Hoerner, but Alzolay still out with injury

Nico Hoerner and Dansby Swanson wasted no time making their returns felt in the Chicago Cubs' win Tuesday night over the Atlanta Braves. Swanson had two hits and Hoerner had the walk-off game-winner. Cubs manager Craig Counsell said reliever Adbert Alzolay received a second opinion on his injured forearm, but the news was not positive for a return to the mound anytime soon.
