• Cubs 3, Pirates 2: Ian Happ walks it off

Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images The Cubs once again didn’t get much offense... but just enough to win. One day, Cubs hits will ring out all over Wrigley Field. One day, Cubs home runs will fly one after one into the iconic Wrigley bleachers. One day, the Cubs will win a home game by seven or eight or nine runs. Today was not that day. It was, though, a good day in the end, as Ian Happ’s wal...2025

For the first time this year, this team is not really rising to challenges. They are struggling day after day. But, they won again Saturday.

David Banks-Imagn Images The Cubs also got solid pitching and defense. The sun finally appeared at Wrigley Field Saturday afternoon following a dreary Friday and a cloudy morning. The Cubs offense, though, didn’t really show up, scoring just two runs. However, they also got outstanding pitching from Matthew Boyd and three relievers and Dansby Swanson’s tie-breaking homer in the sixth was t...2025

On a Saturday morning ahead of another day game, I won’t waste a lot of words on my thoughts on ghost baserunners.

Matt Marton-Imagn Images Cade Horton outpitched Paul Skenes, but the Cubs lost anyway. Let’s try to look at the Cubs’ 2-1 loss to the Pirates in 10 innings Friday this way: If there was one game in this series they might have been destined to lose, it was the game where Paul Skenes started for Pittsburgh. On the other hand, the Cubs did have four hits off Skenes and got him out of the game...2025
