Last week we looked at a nine game homestand for the Cubs. They won just four of nine games, including losing four straight to end the homestand. That cost the Cubs any likely chance to clinch the division at home. This week, we’ll look back at the subsequent road trip as the Cubs set out to make history. 39 years Cubs fans had been waiting to get back to the postseason. Many, many Cub fans had never seen the Cubs play a single post season game.
Game 153, September 21 - Cubs shut out by Cardinals 8-0; drop fifth straight (90-63)
