You know what would have been cool after 45 straight games against the Orioles? A winning game.
And win it they did, but they certainly had to work for it.
We saw Zach Eflin up against Jameson Taillon.
Top of the first and Cody Bellinger got a two-out single, but the Cubs couldn’t bring him home. The Rays went 1-2-3 in the bottom of the inning.
Michael Busch got a two-out single in the second, followed by a single from Pete Crow-Armstrong, who then stole second. The Rays then lost their challenge contesting the play.
