Apr 14, 2026; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Chicago Cubs infielder Alex Bregman (3) hits an RBI single against the Philadelphia Phillies in the fifth inning at Citizens Bank Park. Mandatory Credit: Kyle Ross-Imagn Images | Kyle Ross-Imagn Images A night after the Phillies’ hitters had their way with the Cubs’ pitching staff, the Cubs returned the favor on Tuesday. Phillies pitchers couldn’t keep the Cubs off the bases, giving up 15 hits, six walks, and one hit batter.
And once those runners got on board, the Phillies didn’t do much to stop them from scoring. The end result was an ugly 10-4 loss. Early on, it looked like the Phillies might be due for another big offensive night.
