Matthew Boyd had another nice game, but it was ruined by a bullpen meltdown. | Photo by Geoff Stellfox/Getty Images The Cubs were going along just fine until a disastrous eighth inning. The headline is what baseball folks will tell you. Walks are going to happen, but leadoff walks almost always lead to bad things. That’s what happened to the Cubs in the eighth inning of Saturday’s game, af...2025
