Mets 11, Cubs 1: All you can do is laugh
David Banks-USA TODAY SportsYou know, I could just say the Cubs lost to the Mets 11-1 on a beautiful Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field and leave things at that, just continue and look at tomorrow’s game.
However, there are a few things worth mentioning here and then we’ll just, as Kyle Hendricks has been quoted, “flush this one and move on.”
From BCB’s JohnW53:
Every Cubs starter since 1901 who has given up double-digit runs and hits in three innings or fewer:
1. Joe Coleman, on June 19, 1976, at Atlanta: 11 runs on 10 hits in 2\u2154 IP
2. Drew Hall, on Aug. 16, 1987, at home vs. the Mets: 10 runs on 10 hits in 1\u2154 IP
3. Shota Imanaga, today, at home vs. the Mets: 10 runs on 10 hits in 3 IP
