by Ken Schultz June 1, 2018

“No. No! NO! Stop it! Stop it, please! I beg you! This is sin! This is sin! This is sin! It’s a sin, it’s a sin, it’s a sin!” –Little Alex, A Clockwork Orange ALSO: –Me during any Tyler Chatwood start Actually, hold on a sec… that implies that a Chatwood start is like watching […]

Game 27 Recap: Rockies 3, Cubs 1

by Marcelo Tavares May 1, 2018

Even though their elevations above sea level differ by around 4,600 feet, after three home runs in the first inning one would assume tonight was another Coors Field slugfest. Instead, tonight’s 3-1 loss was the first loss in almost a week for the Cubs, after winning their first five games this homestand. What You Need to […]

Game 26 Recap: Cubs 3, Rockies 2

by J.L. Wall April 30, 2018

With a Pirates loss at Washington tonight, the Cubs ended April in sole possession of first place in the Central. What you need to know: Winter turned to summer this evening at Wrigley Field, but the offenses didn’t seem to notice the 80-degree weather or the wind blowing out at 16 miles an hour. With […]

by Kenny Kelly June 10, 2017

What You Need to Know: Eddie Butler pitched well, but the Cubs lost their fourth in a row, dropping them below .500. The Rockies’ starter, Jeff Hoffman, was excellent, striking out eight in 6 1/3 innings. Next Level: In Jeff Hoffman’s first three starts this year, he struck out 24 and walked one in 19 […]

Game 60 Recap: Rockies 5, Cubs 3

by Sam Fels June 9, 2017

What You Need To Know: The Cubs offense once again sputtered, wheezed, coughed, stumbled, gagged, choked its way into high-leverage situations. But much like a high school boy trying to ask his dream girl to the prom, when the moment of truth came they emitted barely a squeak, got a silly look on their face, and […]

Game 59 Recap: Rockies 4, Cubs 1

by Zack Moser June 8, 2017

What You Need to Know: Jon Lester labored through five innings, giving up some weak contact before a big home run off the bat of former Cub DJ LeMahieu. A solo homer from Kris Bryant in the first and some minor scoring threats in the middle innings couldn’t overcome Rockies starter Tyler Chatwood’s solid performance. […]

Game 34 Recap: Rockies 3, Cubs 0

by Xavier Alatorre May 10, 2017

What You Need To You Know: Coors Field is a hellmouth and you should be glad this series is over. That is all you need to know. The Rockies had German Márquez face off against Kyle Hendricks. With the exception of rough fourth and seventh innings, Hendricks was effective against Colorado. In 6.1 innings pitched, Hendricks threw 92 […]

With Cubs, LeMahieu Showed All-Star Potential

by Zach Bernard May 10, 2017

In 2016, Colorado Rockies second baseman D.J. LeMahieu produced a .348 batting average by season’s end. LeMahieu played in 146 games for the Rockies and sustained his average across 552 at bats, qualifying him for the National League batting title. It was a pretty remarkable season for the 27-year-old infielder, who logged an impressive .911 […]

Game 33 Recap: Cubs 8, Rockies 1

by Xavier Alatorre May 9, 2017

What You Need To Know: My baseball playing days ended many years ago. But when I was a kid, I loved doubleheaders. I’m sure if I were a professional athlete playing a double header on the road—which, for the Cubs, followed an eighteen inning marathon against the Yankees—my opinion would be different. The Cubs dropped the […]
