Cubs vs. Pirates: Game 2 Thread

Chicago Cubs (82-75) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (66-91)

Jon Lester (13-10, 4.51) vs. Dario Agrazal (4-5, 5.08)

Second installment of a 3-game series at PNC Park. Literally a must-win game for the Cubs, who will be eliminated from playoff contention with a loss (and/or a Brewers win).

B3 — Caratini in at 1B w/ the Brewers leading the Reds 8-1. Rizzo removed from the game. His 2019 season is likely over. His final AB was a flyout.

T8 — Zobrist draws a 1-out walk to put men on 1B & 2B. Russell pinch runs for him. Tonight was maybe the last appearance for Zobrist in a Cubs uniform.

F — Cubs lose their 8th straight. Milwaukee winning a little earlier knocked them out of playoff contention. Cubs will miss out on the postseason for the 1st time under Maddon.
