Chicago Cubs fans felt their heart get torn out of their chests Saturday afternoon.
Why, you ask? Cincinnati Reds pitcher Anthony DeSclafani hit a grand slam off Brian Duensing. That shot was the first grand slam by a Reds pitcher since 1959, and it made it an 8-1 ballgame. After losing the first two games to last place Cincinnati, it made the game a lot worse. The Cubs are one loss away from being swept in a four-game series.
Just this past Wednesday the Cubs took two of three from the Los Angeles Dodgers, the hottest team in baseball.
