Cubs 16, Reds 6: Ian Happ, Jeimer Candelario lead Cubs to another franchise record

The Cubs demolished Reds pitching again Wednesday night, winning 16-6, and so I get to lead this recap with more facts from BCB’s JohnW53:

The 36 runs scored by the Cubs in the last two games is their most in back-to-back games in the Modern Era (since 1901).

Their 12 home runs are the most that the Cubs have EVER hit in back-to-back games.

They hit 10 on Sept. 17-18, 2006: six in an 11-3 win at home over the Reds, then four in an 11-6 win at Philadelphia.
