Christopher Morel and Brandon Hughes Put on a Show for Cubs Fans at Wrigley Field in MLB Debuts

Wrigley Field witnessed two unforgettable major league debuts on May 17, 2022. Pitcher Brandon Hughes made history by being the first pitcher in the modern era to get 5+ outs in his MLB debut with all of them coming via strikeout. Even more impressive, he converted from being an outfielder to a pitcher just three years ago. Christopher Morel, who was signed by the Cubs out of the Dominican Republic in 2015, hit a home run in his first major league at-bat. He is the first Cub to homer in his first major league at-bat since Willson Contreras on June 19, 2016.
