From BCB’s JohnW53, a fun doubleheader fact:
The Cubs have not swept a doubleheader on the road since August 13, 2008, when they won at Atlanta, 10-2 and 8-0.
Jim Edmonds and Geovany Soto both hit a two-run homer and a double in Game 1. Rich Harden and four relievers combined on a three-hitter in Game 2.
The Cubs had played 10 more doubleheaders on the road before today. They were swept in four and split six. In only two of the splits did they win Game 1: in 2014 at St.
