MLB - Cubs & Sox Lose; Cards Tie

>>Cubs Blanked By Royals
Chris Young pitched four scoreless innings and Christian Colon snapped a 0-for-23 skid with his first two hits as the Kansas City Royals topped the Chicago Cubs 10-0 on Wednesday.
 
Young, who pitched out of a bases-loaded one-out jam in the fourth, allowed two hits, walked two and struck out five.
 
Colon, who had not had a hit since his RBI single in the 12th inning of Game 5 of the World Series, doubled in the fifth and singled in the seventh.
 
Reymond Fuentes, who is trying to earn a job as a spare outfielder, hit a three-run homer in the seventh and drove in Colon with a fifth inning single. Dusty Coleman hit a two-run homer in the eighth.
 
Cubs right-hander John Lackey allowed two runs on six hits over five innings, walking none and striking out four.
 
>>Brewers Top Sox
Ryan Braun had an RBI single in his first at-bat of the spring and scored in the second as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Chicago White Sox 5-2 on Wednesday.
 
Braun, making his spring debut following off-season back surgery, followed a walk to Eric Young Jr. and a hit-and-run single by Jonathan Lucroy in the first inning with an opposite-field single to right field to drive in Young.
 
It was the first run of the spring allowed by Chicago's Carlos Rondon, who pitched seven scoreless innings and allowed only three hits in his first two starts.
 
Braun, who made a running catch in left field on a fly ball by Chicago's Adam Eaton to open the game, walked in the third inning and scored from first base with a slide at home on a double by Chris Carter.
 
Matt Garza pitched four scoreless innings for Milwaukee, allowing two hits and striking out three.
 
Tim Anderson tripled and scored in the fifth for the White Sox, who had five hits.
