The Cubs wound up their 10-game west coast road trip 4-6, which isn’t really all that successful, but frankly could have been much worse. In fact, if you just focused on their games against the National League West the four games they split with the Padres while taking two out of three from the Giants looks pretty good. Unfortunately, there was a sweep by the Angels sandwiched in the middle of those two series.
Which sets up a series with the Pittsburgh Pirates that is scheduled to begin tonight at Wrigley Field (if the weather cooperates).
