Game 69 – Cubs 5 Tigers 6

Tigers sweep the Cubs

Winless so far this road trip

Crosstown Classic next

[34-35]

Game 68 – Cubs 3 Tigers 5

Cubs aren’t gonna win

Too many games if they leave

Thirteen men on base

[34-34]

Game 67 – Cubs 4 Tigers 5

Baseball games like this

Are a whole lot more fun when

Cubs get the walk off

[34-33]

Game 66 – Cubs 0 Braves 2

Every streak must end

But did the Cubs have to leave

Twelve runners on base?

[34-32]

Game 61 – White Sox 4 Cubs 1

After two days off

Were our Cubbies that bad, or

Was Danks just that good?

—

My silver lining?

John Danks is a pitcher on

My fantasy team

—

But – always a but

One of my other pitchers

Is Ryan Dempster

[30-31]

Game 59 – Twins 2 Cubs 0

Pitching remains good

Hitting remains anemic

Losses piling up

—

Cubs record slips to

Below five hundred again

Third time this season

[29-30]

Game 58 – Twins 7 Cubs 4

Dear Milton Bradley:

Just in case you didn’t know

Three outs per inning

—

Not your fault Cubs lost

But that defensive “error”?

Inexcusable

—

And let’s not forget

Base running gaffe in the sixth

Ball lost in the sun

[29-29]

Game 57 – Cubs 1 Astros 2

Same score, diff’rent day

Cubs offense struggles again

Pitching has been great

—

Two games in a row

The only Cubs scoring comes

From solo home runs

[29-28]

Game 56 – Cubs 1 Astros 2

A Soto home run

Is the only Cubs offense

That we saw tonight

[29-27]

Game 53 – Cubs 3 Reds 4

I like Fontenot

But the Cubs might not have lost

With D’Ro at third

—

Inexperience

Is why Mike misplayed a bunt

So said Bob Brenly

—

Not Fontenot’s fault

That the Cubs could use more depth

Jim Hendry”s to blame

[27-26]
