A Tip of the Recap – June 5th
The Cubs battled back but ultimately lost by a score of 7-5 tonight to the Nationals.
The Good
Anthony Rizzo had himself a game tonight; he went 2 for 4 with 2 HRs (11 total on the year) and 3 RBI (34 for the year). He is now hitting a robust .325 and deserves to be in the discussion of best first baseman in all of baseball.
Miguel Montero hit a solo shot (his 6th) in the 6th inning to give him 17 RBI on the year. He is only hitting .244 and has had sporadic playing time recently with the Cubs facing some lefties. He should start the rest of the weekend though and hopefully he can get something going offensively.
The Bad
