PITTSBURGH — Right-hander Keegan Thompson is back with the Cubs for the first time in over three months after being recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Thursday before the series opener against the Pirates.
“It’s really cool,” Thompson said of rejoining the team in the midst of a playoff push. “It’s been fun to watch the guys go on the streak that they’ve had. And so it’s nice to be back up here and hopefully be a part of that.”
