Clay Holmes made his debut for the Chicago Cubs on Saturday, returning from a nearly three-month absence caused by a fractured fibula. Pitching for the Cubs against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium, Holmes allowed four earned runs and six hits over four innings. The Cubs lost the game 6-3.
During the same game, Kansas City Royals player Jac Caglianone achieved a franchise milestone.
