The Cubs have also allowed three runs or less in each of their last 11 games on the road, which Elias reports as the longest such road streak by any team in the majors this season it s the longest single-season streak by any team since Joe Maddon s Tampa Bay Rays allowed three runs or less in 19-straight road games from July 4-August 22, 2014. The Cubs have allowed three runs or less in 11 road games in a row for the first time since a 15-game stretch from September 10-October 2, 2010, the longest streak by the Cubs since 1913 the Cubs have enjoyed a total of six such stretches of allowing three runs or less in 11-straight road games (or more) since 1913, with the other four taking place between 1913 and 1919.

Contreras is only the second Cubs catcher in the last 20 seasons to reach 20 homers, joining Geovany Soto (23 in 2008) the last Cubs catcher to hit more than 23 homers was Rick Wilkins with 30 homers in 1993. Contreras Sunday reached 33 career home runs in his 175th game, the most-ever by a native of Venezuela through 175 games Miguel Cabrera previously had the most with 32 homers through 175 games.

The Cubs have 26 games remaining at home and 25 games left on the road Chicago has more home games remaining than any other team in the N.L. Central. The Cubs also see 31 of their final 51 games come against N.L. Central division foes, or 61 percent of them the Cubs are 26-19 against their own division, a.578 winning percentage, by far the best record of any team within the division the Reds are next closest with a 22-20 mark within the Central, while the Pirates are 21-21, the Brewers are 23-24 and the Cardinals are 20-28. IT S A START: Cubs starting pitchers have posted a 3.09 ERA (47 ER/137.0 IP) while going 13-3 with a.214 opposing batting average and a stellar 1.02 WHIP in the first 23 games since the All-Star break, including 15 quality starts the.214 opponent average and 1.02 WHIP lead all major league starting rotations in that span while the 3.09 ERA is second (Dodgers, 2.76).

SOLID BAT, SOLID GLOVE: Anthony Rizzo last week hit his 25th homer of the season to become just the third Cubs left-handed hitter to record four 25-homer campaigns he joins Billy Williams (10 times from 1961-72) and Bill Nicholson (five times between 1940-47), and his four consecutive 25-homer campaigns are second-longest behind Williams six-straight 25-homer seasons from 1963-68). Rizzo enters today with a career-high 91-game errorless streak at first base dating to April 24 that s the longest errorless streak by a Cubs first baseman in 25 years since Mark Grace went 102-straight games without an error at first during the 1992 campaign. CLOSING TIME: With his save last night, Cubs closer Wade Davis has extended his single-season franchise record for consecutive save chances converted, as he s been successful in his first 24 opportunities this year that surpasses Flash Gordon in 2001, Ryan Dempster in 2005 and Carlos Marmol in 2012, all of whom had 19-straight successful save chances in a single campaign. The franchise mark for consecutive save chances converted is held by Dempster (26 straight in the 2005-06 seasons).
