The Chicago Cubs lost to the Colorado Rockies on June 11, marking their third consecutive defeat. The Cubs have lost seven of their last nine games, falling to a record of 34-34 and trailing the Milwaukee Brewers by eight games in the National League Central. After an impressive start to the season at 27-12, the team has struggled, including seven losses in one-run games. Key hitters such as Nico Hoerner and Alex Bregman have produced lower-than-expected numbers, and the pitching staff has been hampered by injuries, including those to Cade Horton and Jameson Taillon. The Cubs look to turn the tide in their next matchup against the Rockies.
