It was only fitting that after the excitement of Monday night’s game that the Cubs would turn around and go absolutely flat as an offense last night. Scoring extra runs was going to be essential with Dallas Beeler on the mound, but the fact that the Cubs eked out just 1 run against Yohan Flande was a little embarrassing. To be fair, Beeler did put them in a tough spot, not even lasting through the 2nd inning, but after Travis Wood came in and settled things down through the 5th inning, the Cubs really needed to score some runs and with a pitcher like Flande on the mound, there’s no reason that shouldn’t have happened.
