I wouldn’t recommend this as a way to a whole season’s worth of wins.
But this Cubs team seems to have mastered the knack of spotting the other team a lead, even in the first inning, and then coming from behind to win.
They did it so for the 31st time in 2018 Thursday night at a windy Wrigley Field, giving the Cardinals the first two runs of the game but coming back with a five-run fifth that helped lift the Cubs to a 9-6 win, a great way to begin the second half of the season.
