CUBS POSTGAME: Chicago Cubs WIN AGAIN vs Reds & Michael Busch Sparks RED HOT Offense! | CHGO Cubs

The Chicago Cubs' 13-game winning streak at Wrigley Field has become a cultural phenomenon, with hosts Luke and Justin declaring it a 'Freddy Krueger Cubs' — a team that simply can't be killed. After back-to-back walk-offs on May 4th and 5th, mirroring a feat from 2021, the Cubs now sit at 24-12 with a 17-3 record over their last 20 games, leading the NL Central. The hosts emphasize that this success isn't just about talent — it's about resilience, chemistry, and a 'next man up' mentality. Despite injuries to key pitchers like Kate Horton and Daniel Palencia, and a bullpen that’s been pieced together from depth, the Cubs continue to win in every possible way — low-scoring, high-pressure, and even when the offense is cold. Michael Busch’s 10th-inning home run was the spark, but the hosts credit the entire team’s consistency, especially the bullpen’s flawless execution after Jameson Tyone’s five-and-two-thirds innings. They highlight the team’s underrated defense, the opposing Reds’ repeated defensive lapses, and the emotional payoff of players like Busch and PCA speaking about loving the Wrigley experience. The real story? A team that refuses to quit, thrives under pressure, and makes every game feel like a must-watch — even when they’re down. The hosts conclude that this isn’t just a hot streak — it’s a new identity: a team that wins not because they’re perfect, but because they’re relentless.
