These games in American Family Field at the end of this season feel like returning to the scene of a crime. It’s overly simplistic to say that the 2021 Cubs died in Milwaukee on June 30. For those of you who didn’t have that date seared into your brains, that was the night when the Cubs led 7-0 after the top of the first and went on to lose 15-7. To put it in medical terms, the 2021 Cubs weren’t exactly in an ICU room when they went to Milwaukee, but the patient had some serious underlying medical concerns before that game ever occurred.
