Cubs Battle Back After Tough Loss | MLB News
About this episode
The Cubs are facing a critical series after a tough loss, with key player performances and lineup changes highlighted.
The Cubs are reeling after a heartbreaker against the Tigers, failing to win in extra innings as they now face a must-win series. With David Peterson on the mound — a pitcher whose early outings have been shaky but showed flashes of promise in his last start — the team’s hopes rest on his ability to limit damage despite four walks. The lineup is shifting, with Alex Bregman back in the three-hole and Carson Kelly stepping into cleanup for just the 10th time this season. Nico Hoerner continues his hot streak, while Kevin Alcántara gets his first major league start in right field, chasing his first homer and the power swing Cubs fans have been waiting to see.
