• Cubs 1, Pirates 0: Shōta Imanaga is brilliant again, and a walkoff after a review

Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images That was a heck of a way to end a baseball game. Games like this are why I love baseball so much. Great starting pitching by Shōta Imanaga, yet again. The Cubs get some solid relief pitching, for once, and then after hardly generating any offense at all for eight innings, the Cubs walk it off 1-0 on a Christopher Morel RBI single — but not until after a r...2024

Photo by Daniel Shirey/MLB Photos via Getty Images The Cubs were blown away by the upstart Pirates, 9-3. We turn to sports for a variety of reasons. It helps us escape the daily grind and frustration that life can be. If watching the Cubs these last few weeks has been much of an escape, give yourself a pat on the back. Because this has been more frustration than enjoyable. The Cubs high w...2024

• Paul Skenes dazzles in his first MLB win as the Pirates defeat the Cubs

Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes was almost flawless against the Cubs as he recorded his first MLB win Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes admitted to some nerves when he made his MLB debut last Saturday, as he lasted just four innings and left with a no-decision in a game against the Chicago Cubs. Facing the Cubs again on Friday was a much different stor...2024

Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images An unsuccessful homecoming as the Cubs lose to the Pirates 5-4. These last few days for the Cubs have been a great example of the old baseball adage that is “momentum is the next day’s starting pitcher.” That really ends up an awkward way of saying that a strong starting pitcher performance gives you a chance to win every day, regardless of the foe. Of co...2024

His team eventually beat the Cubs 10-9, but not until after a lot of stuff happened. Skenes was as advertised, throwing 100+ miles per hour 17 times.

When a team gets shutdown on a given day, it can be as much about the pitcher for the other team as much as it is about the team. When an offense goes more or less silent for four days, it’s unlikely that the answer is that you ran into four guys who were locked in all at the same time. Certainly not impossibl...2024

Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images The Cubs brought out the long ball — and a lot more hits — and evened up the series. There is nothing that says more about what the Chicago Cubs should do going forward than what happened in their 10-4 win over the Red Sox Saturday. Cody Bellinger, who has now homered five times in his last six games, hit a grand slam to cap a six-run inning. Marcus Strom...2023

The Cubs thus won their first game of 2024, 9-5 over the defending World Series champions. It was not easy, though. The Cubs began this game wel...2024

A two-run double by Nico Hoerner and sacrifice fly by Mike Tauchman plated all the runs for the Cubs, and four Cubs pitchers, helped by some great defense, held a good Oriol...2023
