The Cubs snatched defeat from the jaws of victory for the second straight Sunday, blowing a 7-3 lead at home a week after giving up a snowman in the 8th inning of their finale in Arizona. And that’s with Craig Counsell putting out real lineups rather than Joe Maddon‘s maddening meatball matchups. Alas, they went out and swept the A’s following that earlier collapse. Now we’ll see if they can rebound against another AL West opponent.
Things didn’t go well for Justin Steele and the Cubs the last time he faced the Rangers, which was back on Opening Day last year in Arlington.
