The Chicago Cubs suffered a heartbreaking loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, missing their chance to clinch the series and complete a four-game sweep despite a dominant outing from Matthew Boyd. Boyd delivered a brilliant quality start, throwing 7.0 innings while allowing just 4 hits, 0 earned runs, 2 walks, and striking out 5 batters to lower his ERA to 3.41, but the Cubs' bullpen couldn't hold on late. Pete Crow-Armstrong (PCA) gave the Cubs life with a clutch two-run home run in the 10th inning, but it wasn't enough as Trent Thornton's struggles on the mound helped the Cardinals steal a dramatic victory. Join the CHGO Cubs crew as they break down Boyd's incredible performance, PCA's huge moment, Thornton's costly outing, and the Cubs' missed opportunity to clinch the series while still leading 2-1 and looking to bounce back in the finale.
