Cuppa Cubbie Blue Episode 14 Jun 17, 2019

Show notes

Sara and Andi look back at a not great series in LA that included the Cubs losing 3 out of 4, Kyle Hendricks landing on the injured list and way too many men left on base. However, it's not all doom and gloom! Andi is super impressed with Karlie the ballgirl and Yu Darvish had another great outing. After the break they look ahead to a two game set with the White Sox, but keep getting distracted because the White Sox aren't really the Cubs rivals. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sara and Andi look back on a not great series at Coors Field where the Cubs dropped two out of three to the Rockies and Steve Cishek was injured playing catch before game three. They also are really over the bean ball war that broke out between the Cubs and the Rockies. Suffice to say they are both happy the Cubs are out of Colorado. After the break they look ahead to a four game series against a hot Dodgers team, including Cody Bellinger and Max Muncy and Andi has a surprise for Sara at the end of the podcast.
