New York Mets... 3.23 IN THE LAST 116 In their last 116 games starting July 29, 2015, the Cubs have posted a 83-33 record, good for a.716 winning percentage and a 116-46 mark if projected over a full 162- game campaign this is by far the best record of any team in baseball since July 29, 2015 Texas and Toronto are next closest, both at 73-44, 10.5 games behind the Cubs. OPEN AND SHUT CASE: The Chicago Cubs, a season-high 23-games over.500, today play the second of three games against the Arizona Diamondbacks after yesterday downing the D-backs, 6-0, in the series opener John Lackey spun 6.2 shutout innings while Anthony Rizzo was 2-for-3 with a double, walk and an eventual gamewinning RBI in a five-run eighth, Addison Russell delivered a two-run double and Javier Baez later added a two-run double of his own. The victory was Chicago s sixth shutout this season that s tied for third-most in the majors the Dodgers and Phillies have seven shutouts apiece. Chicago is 44-15 (.746) in its last 59 home games since July 29 of last season. This is the ninth of a 10-game homestand against the Phillies (3-0), Dodgers (3-1) and Diamondbacks (1-0). THIS IS ON THE RECORD: Chicago s 38-15 record is the franchise s second-best start to a season since 1900 this is bested only by the 1907 Cubs who won 41 of their first 53 contests (41-12). Chicago s 38-15 (.717) record is the best record in baseball, followed by the San Francisco Giants (35-22/.614). GETTING TO KNOW YOU: Today marks the third-straight game that the Cubs go up against a starting pitcher that a great majority of the team has never faced in the majors only Ben Zobrist has faced today s D-backs starter, Edwin Escobar, and that s one at-bat (a double) entering yesterday s contest against Archie Bradley, only Jason Heyward had faced him before (0-for-2). This stretch started on Thursday when the Dodgers started 19-year-old lefty Julio Urias, a hurler the Cubs had never seen. STARTERS ARE QUITE STINGY: Cubs starting pitchers have allowed just 35 hits in their last 10 starts at Wrigley Field that s tied for the fewest hits allowed in that many Wrigley Field starts, also done in May-June of 2001 thanks to Ed Hartig. Cubs starters have allowed just 10 runs in their last 10 games at Wrigley Field the only time they allowed fewer in a 10-game stretch at the Friendly Confines was back in 1919 when they surrendered eight runs in 10-game stretches three times. Chicago s starters have a 0.98 ERA (6 ER/55.0 IP) in the first eight games of this homestand they ve held the opponent to a.161 average (30-for-186) and a.462 OPS. FLEXING HIS MUSCLES: Kris Bryant has homered in consecutive games four times this season, including Wednesday and Thursday vs. the Dodgers he has nine homers in his last 100 at-bats after hitting four homers in his first 107 at-bats to start the season through May 6 his 13 homers rank tied for seventh in the N.L. COLLECTING RBI AT A RAPID RATE: Kris Bryant is second in the N.L. with 40 RBI, trailing only Colorado s Nolan Arenado (44) teammate Anthony Rizzo is third with 39 RBI while Ben Zobrist is tied for 10th with 35 RBI.

Central from May 27-June 15 that includes the upcoming nine-game, 10-day trip at Philadelphia (3 games), Atlanta (3 games starting June 10) and Washington (3 games starting June 13). Chicago s 20 wins by five or more runs this season lead the majors and have already surpassed the 16 five-run wins the team had last season... thus far, 11 of Chicago s 15 losses have been by two or fewer runs. LEADING THINGS OFF: Dexter Fowler leads the majors, having reached base safely to start a game 24 times this season he s twice had streaks of at least five-straight games reaching safely to start a contest: a six-game run, April 28-May 4 and a five-game stretch, May 28-June 2 he is one of four Cubs since at least 1946 to lead off six-straight games by reaching base also Alfonso Soriano (6 games, May 13-18, 2008), Mel Hall (6 games, June 5-11, 1983) and Richie Ashburn (7 games, June 28-July 4, 1960). Fowler s.427 on-base percentage this season is second in baseball, trailing only teammate Ben Zobrist (.440) Fowler has a.937 OPS, ninth-best in the N.L. ABOUT THE PEN: The Cubs bullpen owns a 3.10 ERA (48 ER/139.1 IP), third-best in the N.L. and sixth in the majors the bullpen s 139.1 innings pitched are the fewest among any pen in baseball Toronto s pen has thrown the second-fewest (142.0 IP). Cubs closer Hector Rondon is nine-for-nine in save opportunities on the season, and has converted his last 20 save chances dating to August 14 of last season the 20-straight successful save opportunities are tied for third-longest in franchise history with Randy Myers in 1993-94 Ryan Dempster converted a franchise-record 26-straight opportunities from August 2, 2005-May 1, 2006. THE MONTH OF MAY: The Cubs went 18-10 in May with the 18 victories tied for fifth-most in franchise history for any May (also 1987 and 2008) Chicago was 21-7 in May of 1977 and won 20 games in 1920, 1937 and 1955. Cubs pitching recorded a 2.81 ERA (80 ER/256.2 IP) in May, the second-lowest in the majors behind San Francisco (2.66). Ben Zobrist in May had a.406 batting average (41-for-101), with six homers and 25 RBI Elias reports that he is the first player to produce at least 40 hits and 25 or more RBI for the Cubs in a calendar month since Alfonso Soriano did so in May of 2008 (.345, 40- for-116, 10 HR, 29 RBI). ALL GOOD THINGS : Tuesday night s setback snapped a streak of 23-straight Cubs wins in games started by Jake Arrieta that tied the major league record mark since 1913 first set by Atlanta s Kris Medlen in 2010-12, and surpassed the previous franchise record of 17-straight winning starts by Ed Reulbach (1906-07) and Pat Luby (1890-91) thanks to STATS Inc. and Ed Hartig. The Cubs previous loss with Jake on the mound was on July 25 of last season vs. the Phillies when the team was no-hit last night, Chicago was limited to one hit prior to last night, Jake had the best average run support in the game at 9.53. BUT STILL: Jake Arrieta is 25-1 with a 1.09 ERA (27 ER/222.0 IP) with 52 walks and 222 strikeouts in his last 31 starts since June 21 of last year, which is the best 31-start stretch in franchise history he is 20-0 with a 0.94 ERA (17 ER/163.1 IP) in 23 starts since August 1 of 2015. Jake s 20 consecutive winning decisions are tied for third-most in MLB history since 1913 with Roger Clemens in 1998-99 only two others have had longer streaks: Carl Hubbell (24-straight winning decisions in 1936-37) and Roy Face (22 in 1958-59). Jake is 9-0 this season, and the nine victories are tied for the most in the majors (Johnny Cueto, Chris Sale and Stephen Strasburg) Arrieta is the first Cubs starter to begin a season with wins in his first nine decisions since Kenny Holtzman did so in 1967 the only Cub with a longer stretch to start a season is Jim McCormick, who started 16-0 in 1886. IN THE ZONE: In his last 39 games since April 18, Zobrist is batting.372 (51-for-137) with nine doubles, seven homers, 31 RBI and 27 walks compared to 20 strikeouts he has a.473 OBP and a.591 slugging mark in this stretch, contributing to a 1.064 OPS. Zobrist leads the majors with a.440 on-base percentage while his.954 OPS ranks fourth in the N.L. his 35 RBI lead all N.L. second basemen, also second-most in the majors (Seattle s Robinson Cano leads with 48). Zobrist has gone 48 errorless games at second base this season, handling 194 total chances there without a miscue.
