Thompson (3-2) allowed a walkoff home run to take the loss Saturday against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson got the bottom of the ninth inning in a 2-2 game and started the frame on a positive note, retiring the first two batters. However, the righty then served up a solo home run to Cody Bellinger to take his second loss of the season. Thompson has been effective overall for the Cubs with a 1.95 ERA and 30 strikeouts across 27.2 innings, so he should remain in a high-leverage role despite the hiccup.
