The Short Porch isn’t striking out

Sara Sanchez is a baseball analyst who divides her time between her love of the Cubs and fantasy baseball. She's powered by nitro cold brew, rosé, and the vibes in the left field bleachers at Wrigley Field.

The Cubs continued to roll as they opened their first series against a divisional foe in Pittsburgh yesterday as they routed the Buccos 9-0 at PNC Park. I considered making this an “OMG NO!!!!!!!” column about everyone’s favorite Mike, Shu014dta Imanaga, leaving yesterday’s game in the sixth inning. I considered making this a celebration column about Seiya Suzuki having a game for the ages in Pittsburgh, with a homer, double and triple yesterday.
