PCA on the cycle and then getting picked off: "I did everything I could to help the team but I also had a real lapse in focus and that really could have hurt us tonight."

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

putting the walk in walk-off. 😌

[Vinnie Duber @VinnieDuber]

FINAL: On the night Pete Crow-Armstrong hits for the cycle, Pedro Ramirez and Matt Shaw are heroes. Cubs loaded the bases with nobody out in the ninth. Ramirez single tied it, Shaw walk-off walk wins it.

It's a 5-4 victory for the Cubs, and Wrigley's going nuts.

@SLGreenberg Not tonight! 😮‍💨

[Steve Greenberg @SLGreenberg]

Leaving 47,000 men on base and losing on a night when Shota shuts ’em down and PCA hits for the cycle would be peak 2026 Cubs.

[Jesse Rogers @JesseRogersESPN]

Cubs relievers tonight: Walking guys, hitting guys, giving up home runs. Rockies take their first lead on a 3-run shot by Cole Carrigg and it is quiet at Wrigley.

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

The 13th player in Cubs history to hit for the cycle.

[Jesse Rogers @JesseRogersESPN]

And now the double. Cycle watch is on

[Vinnie Duber @VinnieDuber]

PCA is a single away from the cycle, attempting to pull it off in reverse order as he's gone homer, triple, double. It's the fifth inning, Cubs still with a 1-0 lead.

[Jesse Rogers @JesseRogersESPN]

PCA has 11 hits in his last 5+ games including a homer and triple so far tonight. He had a chance at the cycle just a few days ago. Said it was on his mind when he needed just a triple. Now he has the two harder ones out of the way here already. Been on fire lately.

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

START US OFF, PETE.

Pete Crow-Armstrong smacks a leadoff homer for the second time in the last three games.

Cubs out to an early 1-0 lead. PCA's hitting .404 in June.

Seiya Suzuki is the DH in tonight’s Cubs lineup, batting cleanup after he was a scratch yesterday in San Francisco. He left Saturday’s game with right knee discomfort.

@AlissaHirsh Sloot! Any idea how close she is to playing in games?

[Kalen Lumpkins @kalenalumpkins]

I thought there were some positives to look forward to in Jeff Blashill's first year with the Blackhawks.

I also believe some habits need immediate change if the Hawks want to contend.

On this day in 2015, the Chicago Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup beating the Tampa Bay Lightning in 6 games. It was the first time since 1938 that the Cup was raised in Chicago after a home game win. #chicago #history
