Chicago Cubs News: Offense goes from bad to worse

Related Topics: Chicago Cubs, setup pitcher

On Friday night, it felt like a playoff game between the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers. The first regular season night game in the history of Wrigley Field. Let’s just be glad that it wasn’t a playoff game because the Cubs would be in some trouble. Kyle Hendricks pitched well again, but the offense was nowhere to be found. The Cubs managed just one run today–three in the series–as they saw a five game lead turn into a two game lead over the weekend. The Cubs are still in first, so don’t panic yet. But I’d be concerned about what we see from the offense against good pitching.
