 The Cubs series in Cincy against the Reds featured a pair of thrilling comeback wins.  Friday the Cubs were trailing 6-2 before the bats came to life in the 7th inning with a six spot capped by a PCA grand slam that was narrowly fair.  The Cubs would go on to add 5 more runs thanks to homers from Seiya and Dansby. They were able to win 13-6 holding Cincy's bats silent in terms of runs from that point on.  It was Matthew Boyd's worst start of the year and came after three stellar starts in a row.  Chris Flexen was credited with the win, his second since being recalled from Iowa.

Sunday was a very similar affair after Ben Brown struggled and couldn't get out of the fifth inning.  At the end of that inning the Cubs were facing a similar 8-3 deficit but the bats again would come to the rescue as Reese McGuire who had just been recalled for Sunday's game and wound up starting due to Carson Kelly being under the weather even with the Reds featuring lefty Nick Lodolo and what did Reese do?  He smacked a pair of homers including the game tying home run in the 8th inning after a Nico Hoerner RBI double and a Michael Busch single had brought the Cubs within a run.  Seiya Suzuki then crushed a three run homer in the 8th inning which propelled him into the major league lead with 49 RBI's.  Teammate Pete Crowe-Armstrong also has 48 on the year giving the Cubs quite the duo of hitters.  Daniel Palencia was able to come on and record his second save giving the Cubs the series win.  For Memorial Day the Cubs are back at Wrigley for a season with the Colorado Rockies who currently have the worst record in baseball.  It'll be Jameson Tallion on the bump facing off against lefty Carson Palmquist!
