A Tip of the Recap – September 25th
The Cubs were so close to completing the comeback, but just came up short and lost by a score of 3-2 to the Pirates today.
The Good
Jon Lester dueled with Gerrit Cole today and pitched very well (really well enough for the win). He went 7 innings, giving up 2 runs (both earned) on 5 hits with 0 walks and 5 Ks. The real mistake was giving up an RBI single Cole in the top of the 3rd with 1 out, but Lester did escape the inning from there. He was the tough-luck loser, falling to 10-12 on the year with a 3.43 ERA.
