After a slow start to the simulated season, the Chicago Cubs (6-5) appear to be getting into a grove. That may have something to do with playing against the Pittsburgh Pirates (4-7), who have helped the Cubs offense break out over the last two days. Chicago jumped all over Pittsburgh starter Joe Musgrove in the first few innings and cruised to an easy 7-1 victory, via MLB The Show 20.
Kris Bryant doubled to start the game, continuing his streak of red-hot hitting. Anthony Rizzo drilled a single to right field, bringing Bryant around for a quick 1-0 lead.
