The last time Baltimore played the Chicago Cubs, Buck Showalter was the manager and Jonathan Schoop the team’s most valuable player. Yep, it’ll be just a month and a week shy of five years since these two teams met. And this after seeing the Milwaukee Brewers in April and the St. Louis Cardinals last month. Well, good—I mean, how many times can we play the Yankees, for Pete’s sake?
In case you were wondering, the Orioles do play the rest of the NL Central, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, after the All-Star Break.
