CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs saved their scoring and drama until the later innings. Aroldis Chapman then capped it in his Cubs debut, even in a non-save situation.Javier Baez hit a tiebreaking two-run homer deep into Wrigley Fields left bleachers in the seventh, Addison Russell added a grand slam in a five-run eighth and the Cubs beat the White Sox 8-1 on Wednesday night.Jason Hammel (10-5) allowed one run and five hits while striking out seven in seven innings. Hector Rondon pitched a perfect eighth, and Chapman pitched a 1-2-3 ninth -- striking out Jose Abreu and Avisail Garcia -- while hitting speeds of 103 mph.The sellout crowd of 41,116 buzzed when the hard-throwing lefty entered the game. Afterward, Chapmans teammates were talking as much about him as the late homers.I thought we were getting a guy who threw 105. We only got 103, Hammel joked. Thats impressive, jaw-dropping to see.Chapman had 20 saves in 21 chances this season with the Yankees before the Cubs acquired the hard-throwing lefty on Monday for a package of prospects.Manager Joe Maddon said it was easier for Chapman to debut when the game wasnt on the line, especially after the lefty struggled answering reporters questions on Tuesday related to an altercation last year with his girlfriend and ensuing 29-game suspension.Good for him to get through the last couple of days and get out there, Maddon said.Chapman first balked at talking to reporters after the game, but after some negotiations, catcher Miguel Montero served as his translator.The adrenaline was pretty good even though it wasnt a save situation, Chapman said. It was fun to hear the crowd cheering.Baez went deep on a full-count pitch against Anthony Ranaudo (1-1) to chase the right-hander in his White Sox debut.Ranaudo didnt allow a hit until Kris Bryants solo homer with one out in the sixth tie the score 1-1. Bryants 26th homer matched his total last season when he was NL Rookie of the Year.Definitely something Ill remember the rest of my life, Ranaudo said. The way the game kind of turned, that kind of took a bad turn for us.After Ben Zobrists RBI double in the eighth, Russell followed two hitters later with his 12th homer to help the Cubs end a two-game slide and snap the White Soxs four-game winning streak.Ranaudo allowed three runs and two hits -- both homers -- in 6 2/3 innings and smacked an opposite-field homer in the fifth for his first major league hit to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead.The 6-foot-7 Ranaudo, acquired from Texas on May 12, was 5-3 with 3.20 ERA at Triple-A Charlotte in 13 starts. In two games with the Rangers this season, the 26-year-old righty was 1-0, but had a 17.18 ERA and walked eight.The White Sox beat the Cubs 5-4 and 3-0 in the first two games of the crosstown series. The fourth game is Thursday night.Ranaudos homer was the first by a White Sox pitcher since Mark Buehrle went deep on June 14, 2009, at Milwaukee.CLEAR SALE-INGWhite Sox manager Robin Ventura expects nothing unusual when ace Chris Sale starts the finale of the crosstown series with the Cubs on Thursday night after serving a five-game suspension for destroying the White Sox 1976 vintage uniforms and being scratched minutes before his last scheduled start on Saturday.I think its going to be fine, Ventura said. Players always have their teammates backs, and thats no different with our clubhouse.SETTING UPWith Chapmans arrival, Rondon, the Cubs former finisher, figures to shift to a set-up role.I think this opens him up to just pitching and not trying to throw 97 on edges all the time and really being concerned about making a mistake, manager Joe Maddon said. I think this going to free him up a little bit.TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: 2B Brett Lawrie (strained left hamstring) went on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 22.
