## Resource

The Cubs are riding a wild rollercoaster this season—blowing out the Padres 23-1 one day, then getting crushed 17-1 by the Cardinals the next. Despite two 10-game winning streaks followed by a brutal 10-game skid, they remain 10 games over .500, trailing Milwaukee by six in the NL Central. Dansby Swanson lit up the scoreboard with 3 homers and 8 RBIs in the big win, the most runs scored at home since 1977. Meanwhile, the Marlins are heating up with a perfect 7-inning gem from Eury Pérez, positioning themselves as serious wild card contenders. In Houston, the Astros pulled off a dramatic 10-8 walk-off win over Tampa Bay, ending the Rays’ 9-game win streak—but the Rays still lead the AL East.
