A defeat is bad — a blowout loss is even worse. The Chicago Cubs know exactly how it feels tonight in Coors Field with an inexplicable 17-2 loss to the Colorado Rockies.
They had no hitting and plenty of bad pitching. The 17-run loss is their worst this season after a 16-5 defeat by the Atlanta Braves on Opening Day.
Giving up 12 runs and 13 hits in the eighth inning is the last thing any Cubs fan would like to see. The Cubs seem like a team made up of amateurs facing a major league team for the ...
The last time the Cubs starting pitcher Carlos Silva won a game was back on July 6 against the Diamondacks in Arizona. He then had two terrible outings suffering two consecutive losses and did not last more than two innings either time. Tonight, his teammates made sure that they were backing him up as they pounded the Astros early in the game to give him his 10th victory of the year. The Chicago Cubs defeat the Houston Astros 5-2 in the series' opener.
Silva (10-4) showed the Astros his good stuff tonight; he pitched five innings yielding only one run, five hits, ...
The Chicago Cubs entered tonight’s game trying to sweep the St. Louis Cardinals to finish off their 10-game homestand at Wrigley Field, but the visitors did not let it happen. They handed a 4-3 defeat to the Cubs.
Cubs rookie reliever Brian Schlitter (0-1) gave up a home run to Cardinals third baseman Felipe Lopez in the 11th inning. The decisive run also handed him the first loss in his major league career.
The game was tie at 3-3 since the sixth inning; neither team could get the winning run until Lopez’s dinger.
The St. Louis Cardinals showed the aggressiveness right at the ...
The three runs scored by the Houston Astros in the 12th inning extinguished the Chicago Cubs’ hope to take another series at home. The Astros won the rubber game by beating the home team 4-3 in a marathon match of three hours and 46 minutes.
Both starting pitchers of the game, Ted Lilly of the Cubs and Brett Myers of the Astros, brought their best game in the series finale. However, neither one was implicated in game decision. They only gave up one run each in this tight game.
The Cubs got on scoreboard first in the ...
The Houston Astros visited Wrigley Field tonight to kick off a three-game series with the Chicago Cubs. It ended up as a hitting festival for the visitors as they scored five runs in the first inning and added another six more in the rest of the game to beat the home team by a final score of 11-5.
The Cubs had starting pitcher Carlos Silva (9-4) on the mound tonight, but he failed to deliver a winning chance for the Cubs. In fact, he had a ridiculously bad outing; facing 11 Astros, he gave up a total of five runs (all ...
