Rough Start in the Windy City
Well, Brewers fans, it was a tough one at Wrigley Field tonight. The Cubs pitched a shutout against our Brew Crew, ending with a 0-6 scoreline. The game started off with a glimmer of hope when Christian Yelich managed to work a walk in the first inning, but unfortunately, our bats couldn't capitalize. Jackson Chourio struck out, William Contreras grounded into a fielder's choice, and Brice Turang flied out to end our early threat.Cubs Take the Lead
The Cubs came out swinging in the bottom of the first. After a Nico Hoerner single and a Kyle Tucker walk, Ian Happ crushed a three-run homer to right, putting the Cubs ahead early, 3-0. Our pitching struggled to keep their hitters at bay, with Freddy Peralta doing his best to limit the damage, striking out three in the inning.Missed Opportunities
We had a few opportunities to score, but sadly, they slipped away. In the second inning, Andrew Vaughn reached third base after a walk and moving up on outs, but we couldn't bring him home. Our only extra-base hit came in the fifth inning when Sal Frelick knocked a double, but once again, we couldn't convert—tough break.
Cubs Extend Their Lead
Our bullpen worked hard to keep us in the game, but Matt Shaw's RBI single in the sixth and another homer in the seventh from Kyle Tucker put the Cubs further ahead, making it 5-0. The Cubs added one more insurance run with Michael Busch's solo shot in the eighth.Knocking on the Door
Despite another walk from Yelich in the eighth inning, the Cubs defense stayed strong, preventing any breakthroughs. The ninth inning was more of the same, with Brice Turang, Andrew Vaughn, and Caleb Durbin grounding out.Our lineup really struggled tonight, but let's keep our spirits up, Brewers fans!
Tomorrow is a new day, and we’re ready to bounce back. Go Brew Crew!Scoreboard for Brewers @ Cubs (October 10th, 2025)
