The Cubs picked up a win over the Mets Sunday that snapped a nine-game losing streak as they head into the All-Star break.
Sunday’s win also broke the tie between the Cubs and Reds for last place in the NL Central.
“Winning baseball is the name of the game,” Ross said after Sunday’s win. “We lost way too many in a row, whether you want to talk about close games or not." Christopher Morel and Willson Contreras started the eighth inning with base hits, Ian Happ tied the game with a groundout, and Nico Hoerner delivered a go-ahead RBI single.
