It’s always fun to look back at good games the Chicago Cubs have played, even in a year that wound up with a losing record.

Let’s take a look back at the five best Cubs games from this year. As always with lists like this, these choices are subjective and my opinion only. You might have other choices; feel free to share them in the comments.
I’m not ranking these — they are posted in chronological order.
