Sure, the Cubs won yet another series on the road. They even managed a sweep this time! The question remains, though: Will they ever be able to translate their success away from home to games at Wrigley Field?
Okay, maybe I’m getting carried away with some recency bias, but narratives sure can turn on a dime. After spending most of this season excelling at Wrigley and struggling mightily to win outside of Chicago, the Cubs now have two straight encouraging road series wins while what might’ve been their worst series loss of the year just passed us by as the Cubs were swept at home by the red-hot Nationals.
