The Cubs and Pirates got together for the second game of their series at a soggy Wrigley Field Friday afternoon. Chicago could never get their offense into gear and would eventually come up one run short in extra innings.
Both heralded starters, Cade Horton and Paul Skenes, lived up to the hype in this one with neither team crossing the plate in the first six innings. The best scoring opportunity for the North Siders was when Kyle Tucker had a double with two down in the 5th, but Ian Happ was thrown out at home trying to come in all the way around from first base.
