Things weren’t any different compared to the previous two nights in St. Louis as the Cubs offense struggled again and the Cardinals came away with a victory. This time it was a 3-1 decision for the Red Birds as they swept the Cubs in the three game series.

The Chicago Cubs dropped their second straight game to the St. Louis Cardinals as they dropped a 2-1 contest on Wednesday night. They were almost shutout for the second straight night in a row as the offense struggled against the Red Birds once again. Will they turn it around on Thursday night?

Eh, what a terrible game on Tuesday night for the Cubs. The free swingers were shut out by Joel Pineiro who tossed a complete game three hit shutout as the Cardinals took the first game of the series 3-0. That’s what happens when you swing at pretty much every pitch… Patience guys!

Blah, what a bad loss on Sunday for the Cubs as they dropped a 6-5 decision to the Astros and split the rain shortened two game series. The game was pretty much decided in the top of the seventh inning when Jose Ascanio hit two batters and and allowed the Astros to score two insurance runs which proved to be huge.
