The Cubs have won just one of their last seven games, with the most recent loss coming in the worst start of Shota Imanaga‘s young MLB career. But hey, at least it’s the second game in a row and third in the last five that they’ve scored six runs. That’s at least better than getting shut out, though this team can’t seem to get everything working at the same time with any regularity.
If the pitching is nails, the bats are quiet. If they hang crooked numbers, their opponents hang crookeder ones. Now the Cubs need to win Thursday afternoon to avoid losing the series and dropping below .
