Nice win against the NL Central leading Pirates

Will Bellinger return as first baseman and keep Tauchman in CF? Move appears to make sense as expectation when Cubs signed him was that Bellinger would be an option at first, Cubs production at first has been disappointing, Tauchman has been playing well, and Cody’s knee would likely not be strained as much playing first than CF.

Of course, this is baseball so Bellinger and Tuchman may both get injured on first play of the first game that they are on the field together.

Last night was a blast. Once the game got started, the rain never really progressed beyond a drizzle. Also, I had 1914 Club seats, so just ducked inside when it started getting wet. Sat in the 6 row, right behind the Cubs on deck circle. Pretty awesome seats.

By the way, the Cubs are 3-1 since they brought Madrigal back. Coincidence?

Damn, had an opportunity to go to the 1914 Club last night but turned down the tickets - a long dumb story

Great to see the Cubs score, score again, and again

This series was a shitload of fun.

I've had zero expectations this season while just trying to enjoy watching the team regardless of the outcome (which isn't always easy, especially when they aren't scoring), but this has been a pleasant surprise of a stretch.

Nice to have Steele back

5 in a row and all against teams which are supposed to be good - yeah, I still not calling the Pirates a good team

Bullpen pitches scoreless 4 innings to win a 1 run game.

And now the Pirates have lost 5 in a row after losing a couple to the Brewers, while dropping from 1st to 3rd.

Meanwhile the Reds have won 7 straight.

Things are getting steamy.

Cannot win on Sundays to save their lives. Not sure what the deal is with this team.

And they don’t lose on Fridays. 

Cubs are 21-4 on Fridays over the last couple seasons.  No clue as to why?

This team still has major issues. Thankfully, the Pirates are worse.

Still nice to enjoy Cub wins

BTW, Congratulations to the Pirates who seem to really be trying to ensure Cubs don’t become sellers prior to AllStar break
