Game 90 Recap: Giants 5, Cubs 4

by J.L. Wall July 11, 2018

What you need to know:  Today, the Cubs called up a prospect from Double-A Tennessee, and the move paid off.  His name is Kris Bryant, and you may have heard of him, though it’s been a while.  In his first game back since June 22, Bryant went 1-for-5, with two walks and a two-run shot […]

Game 89 Recap: Cubs 2, Giants 0

by Ken Schultz July 11, 2018

It was another game where the starting lineup included David Bote at third base and Victor Caratini at first. And even though both have done well, every time a lineup like this gets posted on Twitter, I can’t help but think: The Cubs must have clinched the division yesterday. And they forgot to tell anyone. […]

by Marcelo Tavares May 27, 2018

On a scorching hot day in Chicago, the Cubs bats stayed hot late into the night to get the 8-3 win over the San Francisco Giants. What You Need to Know: A combination of defensive miscues and command issues from starting pitcher Tyler Chatwood allowed the Giants to get to quick 3-0 lead after the top […]

Game 48 Recap: Giants 5, Cubs 4

by Ernesto Hernandez May 26, 2018

Before the game, the Cubs called up catcher Chris Gimenez and optioned Victor Caratini to Triple A. They also placed Yu Darvish on the 10-day disabled list with triceps tendinitis. What You Need to Know: It was another frustrating game for José Quintana, as he was pulled after just one out in the fifth inning. He started […]

Game 47 Recap: Cubs 6, Giants 2

by Brian Davis May 25, 2018

If you needed another illustration of the weirdness of baseball, the Cubs entered their series as far back in the NL Central as the Los Angeles Dodgers are in the NL West (3 1/2 games). Guys, it might be time for a run. Lucky for the Cubs, they’re 12-2 in their last 14 against the […]

Game 112 Recap: Giants 6, Cubs 3

by Kenny Kelly August 9, 2017

What You Need to Know Jose Quintana and the Cubs ran into some tough luck against one of the most snake-bit teams in either league. The offense created several opportunities, but the big hit never came. There would be no thrilling ninth inning comeback against this iteration of the Giants bullpen. Not with super closer […]

Game 111 Recap: Cubs 5, Giants 3

by Kenny Kelly August 8, 2017

Next Level The last time the Cubs faced off against Matt Moore in San Francisco, the left-hander was magnificent, going […]

Game 45 Recap: Cubs 5, Giants 4

by Xavier Alatorre May 24, 2017

What You Need To Know: The Cubs continued their series against the Giants tonight. Kyle Hendricks took the mound for Chicago while San Francisco sent Matt Moore to the rubber. Every win is a “needed win,” but tonight’s puts the Cubs within striking distance of first place, as cliches go. Hendricks was shaky through the first […]

Game 44 Recap: Cubs 4, Giants 1

by Matt Petitt May 23, 2017

What You Need To Know: Coming into tonight’s game against Johnny Cueto and the Giants, Cub hitters had hit twelve home runs since the beginning of this current homestand, which began last Tuesday. This figure led the National League during the timeframe, and the Cubs continued their recent torrid home run pace by adding three more […]

Game 43 Recap: Giants 6, Cubs 4

by Kenny Kelly May 22, 2017

What You Need to Know: John Lackey was bad; Joe Panik was great. The defense was spectacular, and the Cubs made it interesting, but in the end it wasn’t enough. Next Level: Including the postseason, the Cubs have been 9-1 against the Giants at Wrigley Field in the last two years. As a Giants fan […]
