Hey, Cubs!
Maybe soon, you could take a big early lead and, you know, hold it?
For the second straight game, the Cubs took that early-inning lead. Also for the second straight game, they had scored four runs and had a multiple-run lead heading into the eighth inning.
This time, a bit of a bullpen meltdown gave the opponent multiple runs in the eighth and ninth. Fortunately, the Cubs offense was up to the task and scored just enough in the ninth to provide the margin of victory in a 7-6 win over the Tigers.
