With Marlins left-hander Ryan Weathers on the mound Wednesday, shortstop Dansby Swanson, a right-handed hitter, led off instead of center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong, a left-handed hitter. It was the 41st time in Swanson’s career that he’d started in the leadoff spot, and his first as a Cub.

Crawford’s hit scored automatic runner Leody Taveras, who advanced to third base on a hard-hit single into right-center from Ben Williamson.
