Cubs can’t capitalize on comebacks, lose to Rockies in extras.
It had been a while since the Cubs had swept a series, and after taking Game 1 of the doubleheader Wednesday against the Rockies, they had a chance to do just that.
The offense carried the Cubs during their first two games against Colorado.
After Rafael Ortega’s walk-off homer on Monday and Patrick Wisdom’s heroics in Game 1, it looked like the offense was going to carry them again in the nightcap.

The lineup wasn’t able to come through a final time in the Cubs’ 13-10 loss in Game 2.
“These guys have fought to the end a lot,” manager David Ross said.
“Sometimes, the pitching gets the best of us, but the effort, the intent and the focus is there night in and night out.
We’re gonna make some mistakes at times.
But the way this group goes about it, they’re locked into every pitch and engaged.”

After falling behind 2-0 in the first inning, the Cubs’ offense went to work, opening the bottom of the second inning with four consecutive hits.
