Cubs' bats stay quiet in 2-1 loss at Philadelphia. David Ross' squad has now dropped 16 of their last 22 games.
Unfortunately for the Cubs' ace, few teammates followed suit and the Philadelphia Phillies claimed a 2-1 victory at Citizens Bank Park on the strength of a pinch-hit home run by Bryson Stott in the seventh inning.The somewhat shocking plunge has happened for myriad reasons, but one of the biggest is the lack of consistent hitting.
Seiya Suzuki had a solid eight-game stretch from May 10-19, but he was 1-for-7 in the last two games and struck out with runners on first and second to end the Cubs' true lone threat Sunday. The Cubs also did themselves no favors Sunday on the basepaths, with Mike Tauchman getting thrown out at first base in the second inning by catcher J.T. Realmuto after straying too far off the bag on a pitch in the dirt. Swanson was later picked off by pitcher Taijuan Walker in the fourth.
