Summary
The Cubs ended their road trip with a gritty 5-1 loss to the Giants, snapping their three-game win streak but securing their first series win since early May — a breakthrough after ten straight series without a victory. Logan Webb dominated, leaving little room for error, while Colin Rea struggled in the finale, giving up three runs including a two-run homer. Ben Brown stepped up with resilience, relying on his sinker to keep the team in games. Offensively, Pete Crow-Armstrong and Michael Busch delivered, with Busch launching a homer into McCovey Cove — a sign that the offense is finally clicking.
