Starting in 1901, the first year of the Modern Era, the Cubs have played 18,855 regular-season games.
They have won 9,467 of them.
In more than one third of those wins, 3,367, they scored between.
On Sept. 1, Justin Steele and Adbert Alzolay combined to shut out the Twins at Minnesota.
As I reported at the time, they became only the third pair of Cubs pitchers to allow no runs in a game in.
Second of 2 posts about Bill "Swish" Nicholson, who on July 23, 1944, became only the third batter to be walked intentionally with the bases loaded. Since then, just 2 more have been walked on.
