ST. LOUIS — The Chicago Cubs rallied from a five-run deficit Sunday to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-5 in 10 innings, taking the series and ending a 17-games-in-17-day stretch with a 5-12 record.
In the postgame clubhouse afterward, one of the TVs was turned to the Philadelphia Phillies game, in which former Cubs slugger Kyle Schwarber hit a home run, causing Kyle Hendricks to turn his head and watch his former teammate round the bases.
There is life after the Cubs, and if the sell-off in July 2021 proved anything it’s that no one is untouchable.
