Tuesday Was One Helluva Chicken Little Game for Cubs

Related Topics: Chicago Cubs

If Tuesday’s series opener against the Mets was a litmus test, the Cubs came out looking basic as hell. Which is ironic given all the acid brewing in fans’ stomachs following the 9-7 loss that saw the Cubs blow a 6-1 lead to drop their fifth in a row. It was the first time this month and just the third time in the second half that they’d lost when scoring five or more runs. The Cubs actually had four previous losses in which they scored seven, all 7-8 scores, the first of which came against the Padres back on April 6.
