CHICAGO – In the game of baseball, every game counts, and the home opener of the Chicago Cubs Monday against the Pittsburgh Pirates is the proof. What appeared to be a ground routine should have resulted in a 6-run barrage by the Cubs, resulting in a 10-0 loss in the first game of the 2019 season at Wrigley Field. . While the Cubs '8-shot production during the competition usually does not indicate a 10-point loss, the Buccos' four errors, including three by one player, made all the difference.

With two losses in the second, Pirates shooter Jameson Taillon was treated and seemed poised for a good start for a Pirates team in Monday's game with a four-game winning streak. Instead, Pittsburgh's wandering throw, Kevin Newman, on a grounded ball hit by Daniel Descalso leads to the end of the beginning of Taillon at the end of the second frame. Descalso was second after the error and after an intentional walk of the player Jason Heyward, Cubs Pitcher Jon Lester a double RBI in the center left followed by a simple 2 points of Leadoff Man Ben Zobrist.

Taillon was naturally agitated at that moment and he began to strike Kris Bryant with a pitch. The misfortune of Taillon then worsened when Cubs Slugger Anthony Rizzo pierced a hard-hit single that ricocheted from Taillon's upper body and into the outer field. The miraculous Cubs race has been successful as a field player Javier Baez followed the unorthodox single of Rizzo with one of his own. While swaying one step into the ground, Baez involuntarily threw the bat on the baseball and managed to make enough contact to send the ball over Newman's head and place it in the center left from the surface for a simple RBI.

Newman then made history by becoming one of the few players to have made three mistakes in the same heat, with the short woebegone stopping playing a battered ball Kyle Schwarber so badly that he was accused of two errors in the game. The Cubs chained on another run via Newman's blunders, leading the assault of the 6 races that was triggered by the error initial.

Descalso then started a new series of races for the Cubs in the third, but this time, a success triggered everything. Descalso's double earned him a Zobrist score and Heyward then scored on a Bryant-led double in the corner of the field. In the next round, Schwarber scored his third round of the year with a 411-foot moon shot that brought Baez to give the Cubs a 10-0 lead. From there, the Cubs conquered.

While Lester won what turned out to be the winning hit, his time on the mound was shortened in the third period due to the stiffness of the hamstrings, probably caused by multiple slips at the bottom of the second. Chicago, however, was able to avoid setbacks and held a scoreless team for the first time this season. In addition, scoring 10 points in the afternoon, the Cubs are now only the second team since 1908 to reach the 10-point plateau five or more times in their first 10 games.
