Chicago’s Matthew Boyd won a matchup of All-Star left-handers as Max Fried left early because of yet another blister on his pitching hand, and the Cubs stopped the New York Yankees’ five-game winning streak with a 5-2 victory.

Just for the record, the last Cubs pitcher who threw a complete-game shutout was Marcus Stroman, who one-hit the Rays at Wrigley Field May 29, 2023. And the last Cubs pitcher to throw a Maddux (CG shutout, fewer than 100 pitches, which Boyd had a chance to do) was Kyle Hendricks, who threw an 81-pitch CG shutout against the Cardinals May 3, 2019.
