On the other end of the spectrum, Chicago has won 19 games by four or more runs this season, tied for second-most in baseball with Boston, trailing only Houston (20) Chicago s.760 winning percentage in games decided by at least four runs is third in baseball behind Boston (19-4/.826) and Houston (20-6/.769). Chicago has won seven of its last nine games and is 8-3 in its last 11 contests last night s setback snapped a four-game winning streak. The Cubs are 11-6 against the N.L. East this season, and their.647 winning percentage is the second-highest for any N.L. club vs. the N.L. East this season Milwaukee is 8-3 (.727) against N.L. East opposition thus far. Following this three-game set against the Phillies, the Cubs will continue this Keystone State homestand with three games against the Pittsburgh Pirates, beginning Friday. A FEW HAPPY ANNIVERSARIES: On this date seven years ago, the Cubs selected Javier Báez with their first pick (sixth overall) of the 2011 Draft and on this date five years ago, the Cubs selected Kris Bryant with the second overall pick of the 2013 Draft. At the time Báez was selected, Baseball America called him the best pure hitter among high school eligible players that year since making his big league debut, Báez has batted.257 (358-for-1,394) with 65 doubles, eight triples, 61 homers and 203 RBI while also being named 2016 NLCS Co-MVP. Baseball America had listed Bryant as the top position player available in the Draft that year, as well as the top college hitter Bryant, who has hit.288 (552-for- 1,916) with 121 doubles, 14 triples, 102 homers and 302 RBI, is one of 15 players ever to win Rookie of the Year, MVP and a World Series in his career. A RARE OCCURRENCE: Last night, Philadelphia s Zach Eflin became the first starting pitcher to go more than 7.0 innings against the Cubs this season in fact, Chicago had gone 79-straight games without the opposing starter recording an out in the eighth since Gerrit Cole threw 8.0 innings, Sept. 6 of last season in a Cubs 1-0 victory. The Cubs are one of just seven teams to have allowed the opposing starter to pitch more than 7.0 innings in just one game this season, joining Cleveland, Los Angeles (N.L.), Minnesota, New York (N.L.), Philadelphia and San Diego thanks to STATS, Inc. IRON MAN: Willson Contreras leads the majors, having caught 431.0 innings and making 47 starts behind the plate thus far accordingly, he leads all big league backstops with 457 total chances and leads all N.L. catchers with 33 assists. Contreras 3.11 catcher s ERA ranks fourth in the majors behind only Houston s Brian McCann (2.52), Washington s Pedro Severino (2.73) and Philadelphia s Jorge Alfaro (2.99).
