Young Girl Struck By Foul Ball During Cubs-Astros Game

Chicago Cubs v Houston Astros

A little girl is expected to be okay after getting hit by a ball in the Cubs' 2-1 win over the Astros in Houston. Albert Almora Jr. hit a liner into the stands down the third-base line in the fourth inning that hit a little girl. She was reportedly awake and talking and went to the hospital as a precaution. Almora was crying and had to be consoled. Kyle Schwarber and Kris Bryant homered to supply the offense, and Kyle Hendricks tossed eight innings of one-run ball for the win. Wade Miley took the tough-luck loss for Houston. Josh Reddick plated Houston's lone run with a sac-fly.
