Cabrera shuts them down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cubs Offense (58 runs in 8 games) vs Cristopher S\u00e1nchez<\/strong><br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve scored 58 runs in eight games. S\u00e1nchez is good (1.59 ERA) but we&#8217;re ROLLING. Keep attacking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defense: Happ, Hoerner, PCA<\/strong><br \/>\nOur defense has been elite all series. Crow-Armstrong had 3 hits last night. Keep it going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wrigley Field Energy<\/strong><br \/>\nEIGHT-game win streak. Home crowd ROARING. Phillies on eight-game losing streak. Complete the SWEEP.<\/p>\n<h2>What the Cubs Need in the Series Finale<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Edward Cabrera Dominates<\/strong><br \/>\nCabrera is 2-0 with a 2.38 ERA. The Phillies can&#8217;t score. Give us 6-7 innings, 1-2 runs and we win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Offense Stays Hot<\/strong><br \/>\n58 runs in eight games. Suzuki homered two straight games. Busch got his first. Keep rolling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defense Stays Elite<\/strong><br \/>\nCrow-Armstrong, Hoerner, Happ, Bregman. All contributing. Keep making plays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Complete the SWEEP<\/strong><br \/>\nEight-game win streak. Up 3-0 in the series.
