CINCINNATI — Fresh off being inked to a deal by the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday, catcher Jonathan Lucroy wasted no time in making a mark for the North Siders in his first appearance with the club on Thursday. With a 2-out double in the fifth inning, Lucroy garnered his first RBI as a Cub.

Smacking a line drive into the left-field corner, Lucroy plated Cubs second baseman Ian Happ from first base in the top of the fifth at Great American Ball Park. The RBI 2-bagger put the Cubs 7-5 on the Cincinnati Reds.
