2019 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 147

I can only assume the Cubs heard me and misunderstood that I was looking for them a lopsided game. I’ll take it but, of course, it doesn’t count extra in the standings no matter how badly you beat the other team.
I have to admit, after reading that series preview and how the Pirates have righted their ship a bit the last few weeks, when they jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first, I was pretty frustrated. So it was exciting for me when the Cubs plated five in the bottom of the inning to take the lead.
