CHGO Chicago Cubs Podcast

Times are tough, Cubs fans. Cody and Luke take on Sean and Herb for another Crosstown Showdown postgame. The good news is the game was much more entertaining tonight compared to Tuesday night. Alas, the White Sox beat the Cubs 4-3. Nico Hoerner now has as many homers as Carlos Correa. He has more homers than Kris Bryant if you want to go that far. Patrick Wisdom added another homer shortly after and then the Cubs offense stalled and failed miserably in the 8th inning to get a runner in from third base with zero out. It's just one of many things wrong with this team right now. Tune in and try to deal with all the White Sox talk if you can.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_SportsInstagram: @CHGO_SportsVisit https://bit.ly/3sE8RMe or download the PointsBet App, make a deposit and use code “CHGO” to get 2 Risk Free Bets up to $2000, an annual CHGO membership and a free shirt! Mobile registration in Illinois is here!Visit https://stravacraftcoffee.com and use code “CHGO25” to get 25% of your order.

The Cubs dropped the first of two in the Crosstown Classic in a wet one at Wrigley Field. The White Sox scored two unearned runs in the second inning and then Tim Anderson added another in the third with a homerun into the right field bleachers. The Cubs scored later in the ballgame, making it 69 consecutive games the Cubs have scored a run, but came up short in the end. Keegan Thompson shoved again, allowing just one run in 3.2 innings pitched in the bullpen day for the Cubs. The Cubs will try to split the series tomorrow back at Wrigley Field.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_SportsInstagram: @CHGO_SportsVisit https://bit.ly/3sE8RMe or download the PointsBet App, make a deposit and use code “CHGO” to get 2 Risk Free Bets up to $2000, an annual CHGO membership and a free shirt! Mobile registration in Illinois is here!Visit https://stravacraftcoffee.com and use code “CHGO25” to get 25% of your order.

The Cubs had three hits and the Brewers had six homers. It was a blood bath at Wrigley North Friday night and one the Cubs hope to forget as they hope to avenge something in the rest of this series. Cubs lose 11-1 to the Brewers. Alfonso Rivas had two of the three hits and Kyle Hendricks did not build off his best start of the season last Saturday against the Pirates as he gave up three of the six homers. Luke and Cody react and look ahead to the rest of the series this weekend.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_SportsInstagram: @CHGO_SportsVisit https://bit.ly/3sE8RMe or download the PointsBet App, make a deposit and use code “CHGO” to get 2 Risk Free Bets up to $2000, an annual CHGO membership and a free shirt! Mobile registration in Illinois is here!Visit https://stravacraftcoffee.com and use code “CHGO25” to get 25% of your order.

The Cubs got back in the win column Wednesday night in Atlanta, winning their first extra innings game of the season 6-3 behind a go-ahead double from Willson Contreras and a 2-run homer by Patrick Wisdom late. The Cubs started the game hot at the plate jumping ahead early 3-0 thanks to Seiya Suzuki's 2-run double, setting up another multi-inning outing for Keegan Thompson, who relieved Mark Leiter Jr. in the third inning. He finally gave up his first earned run of the season, but the Cubs bullpen was elite until the 8th inning when Mychal Givens allowed two runs with two outs. In the end it wasn't enough as the Cubs went on to win in extra innings. Cody, Luke and Ryan react to one of the most exciting games of the young season so far.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_SportsInstagram: @CHGO_SportsVisit https://bit.ly/3sE8RMe or download the PointsBet App, make a deposit and use code “CHGO” to get 2 Risk Free Bets up to $2000, an annual CHGO membership and a free shirt! Mobile registration in Illinois is here!Visit https://stravacraftcoffee.com and use code “CHGO25” to get 25% of your order.

The Chicago Cubs dropped their second consecutive game and sixth and their last seven contests after a 3-1 loss in Atlanta Tuesday night.
