Holy mackerel! The Cubs came back again on Wednesday to beat the White Sox 7-6 on Mike Tauchman's walk-off home run. Down 5-1 in the 4th, the bullpen pitched four innings of one-run ball as the offense chipped away to complete the sweep of the two-game series.
Tauchman and Dansby Swanson each had two-hit nights, and Porter Hodge continued to impress in his rookie season, tossing another scoreless inning to keep his ERA at 0.00 after his first five appearances (4.1 IP, 2 H, 1 BB, 7 K).
The Cubs kick off a four-game weekend series at Cincinnati on Thursday before wrapping up their road trip with a three-game set in Tampa next week.
Their next 20 games could be pivotal, as they include the season's longest homestand (9 games) and no games against teams over .500.
62 games down, 100 to go. Go Cubs go!
