The Chicago Cubs faced some serious questions about their offense as they entered the regular season, and through the first two games of the season, those queries remain unanswered as most of the teams hitters have struggled at the plate.
Hoerner’s hit was the only time the Cubs’ leadoff hitter has reached base so far this season, with a 1-for-8 start to the campaign.
Saturday’s ninth inning was a good encapsulation of those struggles, as Swanson and Happ both reached base to start the inning against Devin Williams. Bellinger then grounded into a double play, and Miles Mastrobuoni struck out to end the game.
