About this episode
The Cubs made history Thursday night in LA with the franchise's first combined no-hitter. Elise Menaker was on the ground in LA for all the festivities and joined the Cubs Weekly Podcast to discuss the momentous occasion with Andy Martinez and Tony Andracki. The panel breaks down the highlights from the combined no-no, including the relievers pitching without realizing what was going on, Willson Contreras' involvement and an interview with Craig Kimbrel right after the game. We also hear from Champ Pederson, Joc's older brother, on receiving his World Series ring before Thursday's game and what that moment meant to him. Plus, our panel zooms out on a difficult month of June for the Cubs and how the team has been able to stay afloat in the playoff race despite facing elite opponents and enduring grueling road trips.
