Key moment

The Cubs have made all their runs in the big 2nd Inning rally without Homerun, which will be helpful on days when the wind will not blow out on Saturday as on Saturday.

Why the Cubs won

You have a quality start and the Bullpen did a good job again. The offensive came through with runners in the goal position to achieve the victory.

Statistics that are important

• Boyd always makes solid starts: 6 IP, 3 R, 4 H, 8 K, 0 BB.
• Swanson is currently cooking absolutely and has come to the base four times.
• Amaya continues to get clutch hits and does an excellent job behind the plate.

Conclusion

The Cubs continue to win the series against poor competition, now the next border actually ends a sweep. The fishing position made a massive jump forward in 2025 and that made a big difference. Boyd was an integral part of the rotation with the previous injuries this season.
