Chicago fans are saddened by the longest losing streak since June 2, 2007 for their beloved Cubs. One night after an offensive explosion, Chicago managed only six singles against Astros starter Randy Wolf. Wolf ended up throwing a complete game shutout against Chicago. The loss prevented Chicago from gaining ground on Milwaukee, who lost earlier in the day to the Mets.
After seven straight wins, the Cubs have endured five straight losses. Realistically, we'll take 7-5 over a twelve game stretch at this point in the season. It just looks worse when it is so streaky.
Chicago will get a day off today and three games against the Reds. That will be their only sub .500 opponent for the rest of the year. If there is a time to get back on a winning streak, this weekend will be it.
