Despite repeatedly tying the game late, the Cubs were unable to take the win tonight. Because, yes, it happened:

This is definitely a way to lose a game. A final crossroads. Wow.
Sorry Robinson Chirinos and Matt Duffy for their shots that tied:

It’s not uncommon for you to get homers from BOTH Matt Duffy and Robinson Chirinos and lose a game. Ai.
I thought Alec Mills didn’t look terrible at all tonight for four innings, and then the third time the order was enough to stop things. It wasn’t a fantastic look, not even particularly good for Mills, but it was a bit of what is expected of him at the bottom.
Complete score of the box.
