The Cubs head to Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates in the first game of a three-game series on Friday night
The Chicago Cubs begin a six-game road trip on Friday when they take on the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Cubs come into town looking to bounce back from a series loss to the San Diego Padres. The Cubs dropped the first game and then evened the series on Tuesday, but were shut out in the finale on Wednesday. They got just one hit in the loss and are now just 4-5 in their last nine games. Thursday they will send Jameson Taillon to the mound as they look to avoid a second straight loss and get a win in the opener. Taillon has been great for the Cubs this season. He has gone 3-0 with a 1.13 ERA in four starts. The Cubs have won all four of his starts and will be looking to extend that streak on Thursday.
