In a frustrating back-and-forth affair today, that didn’t do much to differentiate itself from the game before, the Cubs were unable to win despite scoring ten runs. They ultimately lost on a wild pitch by Pedro Strop in the 9th inning.
The game certainly started off on the right foot. Kyle Schwarber hit his second home run of the year, an opposite field shot for his second of the year. After getting off to a 4-0 lead through four innings, it felt like the Cubs would keep rolling.
