Cubs vs Reds Wild Card Showdown | Chicago Cubs News
The Cubs are clinging to the Wild Card race, locked in a fierce battle with the Phillies, and every game now is make-or-break. After a series win over Atlanta, they face division rivals the Reds in a crucial three-game set. Clay Holmes gets the ball first—solid but walking more batters lately. Matthew Boyd follows, showing flashes of his usual efficiency despite recent rough outings. The third starter remains TBD, but David Peterson’s hot streak makes him a top candidate. On the Reds’ side, Chase Burns starts strong, followed by inconsistent Nick Lodolo and struggling Rhett Lowder—who gave up runs to the Cubs last time out. This series could shake up the playoff picture.

Reds Out, Cubs Edge in Rivalry | Chicago Cubs News
The Reds’ playoff dreams are officially over after a brutal skid, dropping nine of their last thirteen games while falling behind the Brewers and Dodgers. Their struggles against the Cubs—losing seven of ten matchups this year—add insult to injury. Despite the season’s disappointment, Elly De La Cruz is heating up and making a strong NL Player of the Month case. With over 2,400 games in their storied rivalry, the Cubs hold a slight edge but have always kept it close. This weekend’s series favors Chicago, with projections pointing to a two-out-of-three win. Afterward, the Cubs return to Wrigley for their final home stand, taking on the Marlins starting Tuesday night.

Bregman's Horse Wins as Cubs Push On | Chicago Cubs News
Alex Bregman’s horse, Act of Parliament, just won at Churchill Downs—and the whole Chicago Cubs team showed up to celebrate like it was their own victory lap. From huddles in the winner’s circle to players tossed in the air and even manager Craig Counsell joining the chaos, the squad went full Derby mode, with some rocking jockey outfits and Ryan Rolison going full horse. Bregman posted a video of Pete Crow-Armstrong giving his horse a pep talk—captioned “we couldn’t lose.” It’s more than just fun: with their Wild Card lead slipping and nine games left, this win—and Bregman’s hot hitting after a slow start—could be exactly the spark the Cubs need to turn things around.
