Cubs On Tap: S5 E93 – 10 L's in 13 Games...
On this brand new edition of Cubs On Tap, Joey and Nick recap the Cubs' disappointing 8-6 loss at the hands of the Pirates. Following the series loss, the boys dive into everything. This was one of those fake rally games, resulting in the 10th loss in the last 13 games for the Cubs. In addition, this very well may have been Kyle Hendricks' last start at Wrigley... which is sad.
From there, it's focusing on the play. The defensive miscues were in effect, the bullpen struggled enough, and the boys have questions about David Ross' lineup decisions. Where is Alexander Canario to give players a break? Why is Miles Mastrobuoni so beloved by the coaching staff? There are enough questions that make the boys scratch their heads in hindsight.
At the end of the day, finding a way to win ballgames is the name of the game. The boys make their displeasure known with this one. To close the show, it's the preview of the final home series of the 2023 season against the Rockies.
