Wednesday night at Citi Field in New York was a very, very bad night to be a Mets fan. The Chicago Cubs came to town for a doubleheader — a makeup game from June 22 plus the regularly scheduled tilt — and Dansby Swanson made sure to absolutely wreck the place. In Game 1, Swanson went 2-for-4 with 2 home runs and a jaw-dropping 7 RBI as the Cubs blasted the Mets 10–3. That stat line is not a typo. Seven RBI. In one game. That's almost superhero stuff.
The Cubs weren't done, either. In Game 2, Chicago kept the pressure on and rolled to another 10–5 win, this time behind Pablo Ramirez, who went 3-for-5 with a double, 2 RBI, 4 runs scored, and 2 stolen bases. Two games, two 10-run performances — the Cubs swept both ends of the doubleheader and sent New York home hurting. The Cubs improve to 43–37 on the season, sitting just 3 games behind the NL Central-leading Brewers (49–29). Meanwhile the Mets fall to a painful 34–46, sitting 6 games under .500 in the NL East.
The Mets will need to find something fast to turn their season around — but on Wednesday, there was no stopping the North Siders from Chicago. When you score 20 combined runs across two games against the same team on the same night, that's an all-timer kind of evening.
Wednesday was a massive day of World Cup action! Brazil looked absolutely unstoppable, shutting out Scotland 3–0 to remind everyone they are a serious title contender. Mexico also impressed, beating Czechia 3–0 on the road. Morocco rolled past Haiti 4–2 in a high-scoring affair, and Bosnia-Herzegovina pulled off a solid 3–1 win over Qatar. Switzerland edged Canada 2–1 in a tight one, while South Africa surprised South Korea 1–0 in the day's lowest-scoring match. Six games, tons of goals — the World Cup is DELIVERING!

What a Wednesday on the diamond! Sixteen games were played across the majors. Beyond the Cubs' Citi Field destruction, the Pittsburgh Pirates hammered the Seattle Mariners 11–1 with Ryan O'Hearn going 4-for-5 with three doubles and 3 RBI. The Los Angeles Dodgers stayed hot, edging Minnesota 4–3 behind Mookie Betts (HR, double, RBI). In extra-inning drama, the Cleveland Guardians outlasted the Chicago White Sox 4–3 in 10 innings, and the Angels nipped the Orioles 7–6 in 10 innings thanks to Samuel Basallo's monster 2-HR, 4-RBI night. The Colorado Rockies also pulled off an upset at home, beating the Red Sox 8–6 in the thin air of Denver.
