Tough Break for Our Cubbies
Well, fellow Cubs fans, today's game against the Braves was a bit of a rollercoaster, and not the fun kind. Despite a solid start where we took the lead in the bottom of the 2nd, things didn't quite go our way. Our lineup struggled to get the bats going against the Braves' pitching. However, seeing Willi Castro bring Ian Happ home in the second inning was a bright spot early on!
Seventh Inning Woes
Things took a downturn during the top of the 7th inning. After a string of pitching changes and a wild pitch, Ha-Seong Kim broke it open with a home run that brought the Braves ahead.
A run by Ozzie Albies in the top of the 8th secured their lead. Our relief pitchers had a tough time controlling the Braves' lineup; Kim and Albies definitely gave us more trouble than we would have liked.Cubs' Fight Until the End
As true Chicago Cubs, we tried to rally back in the bottom of the 9th. Seiya Suzuki and Ian Happ gave us a glimpse of hope with two late walks, but Carlos Santana just couldn't deliver the hit we needed to put runs on the board. Even though we ended up on the losing side with a final score of 5-1, it's these battles that make us stronger.
Onward to the next one, and as always, Go Cubs Go!
