2023 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 7
Saturday afternoon’s Cubs game was one of those that ends up playing out almost like two games. If you get the first part, then Heroes and Goats is going to look odd to you. When Justin Steele walked off of the mound after the top of the sixth inning, the Cubs were leading 3-1. Through that portion of the game, it was a fairly tense game with each pitch mattering.
That ends up being in stark contrast to a final score of 10-3. The Texas Rangers defense was shaky throughout the game and those miscues ultimately broke the dam wide open and the Cubs pulled away comfortably in this one.
