Addison St., Chicago, IL 60613 Cincinnati Reds (5-2) vs. Chicago Cubs (6-1) Information 2016 Chicago Cubs Media Relations Office April 13, 2016 Wrigley Field Game No. 8 Home Game No. 2 RHP Alfredo Simon (0-0, 1.80) vs. RHP John Lackey (1-0, 9.00) WE LL CALL THAT A COMEBACK: The Chicago Cubs tonight play the second of three games against the Cincinnati Reds after winning Monday s home opener in comefrom-behind fashion, 5-3 down 3-0, David Ross broke up Brandon Finnegan s no-hit bid with two outs in the seventh before Jason Heyward delivered a two-run single later in the frame down 3-2, Addison Russell belted a game-winning threerun homer in the eighth inning. Elias points out that the three-run deficit was tied for the largest the Cubs have overcome to win a home opener in their franchise history Chicago also came back to win their first home game of the season after trailing by three runs in 1952 at Wrigley Field against the Cardinals and in 1916 at then-weeghman Park s first Cubs opener against the Reds. Jon Lester on Monday recorded the pitching staff s sixth quality start in seven games, allowing three runs in 6.0 innings Trevor Cahill, Adam Warren and Hector Rondon each tossed a scoreless inning of relief to lower the bullpen s ERA to 1.06 ERA (2 ER/17.0 IP) thus far. EARLY RETURNS: The Cubs are 6-1 through the season s first seven games for the first time since 1998 (that team went 6-2 in its first eight games) Chicago aims to tie its best start ever through eight games at 7-1, a trick the franchise has turned 10 times in 140 seasons, but just three times in the last 81 years (1969, 1975 and 1985). The Cubs have held a lead in all seven of its games played thus far Chicago is 6-0 when plating at least four runs in a game. WALK THIS WAY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, DON T: Cubs batters lead the majors with 38 walks, two ahead of the Pittsburgh Pirates at the same time, Cubs pitchers have issued the fewest walks in baseball, allowing just nine free passes the Yankees and Rays have allowed the second-fewest walks in the majors (14 apiece). Chicago s 38 walks drawn have contributed to a.372 team on-base percentage, second-highest in the majors behind the Pirates (.387). THAT LL LEAVE A MARK: Chicago s batters have been hit by a pitch in five-straight games for just the eighth time since at least 1913 that includes two six-game streaks with a hit by pitch: September 1-5, 2003 and May 29-June 4, 2013. CURRENT EVENTS: Following this three-game Reds series, the Cubs will entertain the Colorado Rockies for a three-game set at Wrigley Field, starting Friday Monday, the Cubs embark on a seven-game trip at St. Louis (3 games) and at Cincinnati (4 games, starting April 21). This is the second game (1-0) of a stretch in which Chicago plays 22 of 32 games at the Friendly Confines through May 15.
