Road Trip Mercifully Ends

How disappointing was this eight game road trip? Let's look at the numbers.

-The starters had a combined ERA of 1.47 during this road trip.

-The Cubs finished the trip at 4-4.

-The Cubs played 5 extra inning games on this trip.

-Their record was 2-3 in those games.

-They outscored Houston 9-5 in the three game series.

-They managed to lose two out of three anyway.

-The Cubs offense scored 28 runs in 88 innings.

-The Cubs offense left 77 men on base.

I think it's obvious what the problem is. The Cubs starters have to stop giving up runs in bunches.
