That sure was a fun night of baseball!
Paul Skenes is damn good, but tonight wasn’t his night, and Pete Crow-Armstrong was (is) better.
In his third chance at the young ace tonight, PCA got the better of Skenes, ripping a 107.3 MPH double to the right-centerfield wall, driving in the game’s first run. Seiya Suzuki then grabbed the baton from Pete, knuckling a Skenes’ fastball to right, plating two more.
Trailing 3-0, the Pirates (surprisingly) sent Skenes back out for the 6th inning at 92 pitches, and the Cubs offense made Bucs skipper Don Kelly regret that decision by tacking on five more runs courtesy of Dansby Swanson, Miguel Amaya, and Michael Busch.
A four-hit game makes PCA the no-brainer Ankin Law: “Making it Personal” Player of the Game. The Cubs’ MVP challenger slugged his 23rd home run in the 7th and also stole his 26th base of the season tonight. The guy is certified appointment television.

— Chicago Cubs (@Cubs) July 26, 2026While the Cubs’ offense piled on runs, Shota Imanaga notched an 8th-straight impressive start, tossing six shutout innings, allowing four hits and striking out four. Honorable mention for him as the ALMiPPotG.
Fun note: with the game out of hand, Craig Counsell went to the bench, and James Triantos notched his first major league hit in the 8th.

— Chicago Cubs (@Cubs) July 26, 2026Lastly, shoutout to Javier Assad. There’s a great case to be made that he should still be in the starting rotation, but the dude is an out-getter, and proved it once more with three innings of scoreless relief (which was extra clutch with the Cubs in a 17 games in 17 days portion of their calendar).
