Summary
The Chicago Cubs lost their 8th straight home game and 18th in their last 23 overall, falling 5-4 in 10 innings to the Athletics at Wrigley Field. Despite home runs from Seiya Suzuki and Pete Crow-Armstrong in consecutive innings, the Cubs were shut out over the final six innings. The team hasn't won a series since May 4-7 and their once-perfect record when leading after seven innings (26-0) has been broken during this skid.
