AI Summary

Alex Bregman hit a solo home run for the Cubs' only hit in a loss to the Braves, showing improved hard-hit ball metrics.

Bregman took Grant Holmes deep in the fourth. It was one of three balls hit at least 100 mph for him tonight, so that's encouraging from a struggling hitter. He did enter the night with a fine 45 percent hard-hit rate, but about half of those hard-hit balls came in at 95-99 mph. He'd hit balls at least 100 mph 23.6 percent of the time.
