What’s a baseball game without a bit of excitement for the Chicago Cubs these days? If you like offense, the Cubs vs. New York Mets game on Wednesday night was not for you. Both teams combined for ten hits and thirteen strikeouts on the night. Again, Shōta Imanaga was ridiculous for the Cubs, going seven innings without giving up a run. José Buttó pitched six one-run innings of his own for the Mets.
The game’s lone run came in the fifth inning, thanks to a couple of youngsters filling in on the Cubs roster.
