Extra bases

• Outfielder Ryan Sweeney was 2-for-5 with a double and one RBIs in his third rehab game with the Cubs' Rookie League team in Mesa, Ariz., on Tuesday. Third baseman Luis Valbuena went 2-for-3 with a double and one RBIs in his first rehab game, also with Mesa.

Both Sweeney (fractured rib) and Valbuena (strained oblique) were expected to be activated when rosters expand on Sunday.

• Right-hander Kyler Burke combined with two other pitchers on a seven-inning no-hitter Tuesday for Class A Daytona. Burke, a converted outfielder, threw five innings. Kris Bryant hit a double and has now hit safely in 11 of his first 12 games with Daytona.
