Faithful, Too: “Game 34 W and Game 35 L”
Added 2025-05-05 20:32:25 +0000 UTCTwas a day out Saturday, exploring Chinatown, a walk and a catch in the park, and a random screening of Step Brothers in the living room that were the delightful causes of me missing the majority of Saturday’s series-winning victory over the Brewers. I did accidentally watch PCA bat in the 9th without averting my eyes, something that the jinx gods did not forgive me for. He struck out, but he did manage to hit another two home runs earlier in the proceedings. I’ll take it.
As for Sunday’s inoffensive, offense-less effort, the Cubs lost a getaway game 4-0. I was delightfully out at the zoo all day so my day was better than the Cubbies. All of the Brewers’ runs came late off the bullpen. Shota had been great again…but left with a left hammy issue. Currently on the 15-day disabled list (hopefully that’s all), this could be a chance for the Cubs to call up prospect Cade Horton for a good chance at big league exposure for a contending team. Going to be an interesting couple of weeks that of course don’t get any easier (enter Giants to Wrigley this week). As always, let’s go Cubs!
