Lore & Background

The Cubs were swept three games to none by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NLDS.

In Their Own Story

The wind blew out at Wrigley, but the ball refused to find the seats. In the third inning, with runners in scoring position, the silence from the stands grew heavier than any roar. A routine play broke down under pressure as a defensive miscue allowed Arizona to score, shattering the Cubs' momentum. Just like that, the dream dissolved in the cool October air, replaced by the realization of another familiar struggle.
