Cubs Fall Short to the World, Tuesday Night

Written by Cole Havens on June 21, 2022

The Cody Cubs were back in action Tuesday night as they played host to the World Baseball Showcases for a double header at Milward L. Simpson Stadium.

The International Showcase Colts would get the better of the Cubs, winning game 1 by a final of 8-2 and held on for the 4-1 win in game 2.

Trey Schroeder would get the Cubs on the board early in the first game with a 2-RBI base hit but the Colts were opportunistic scoring the games final 8,

Trey Thomasson would take to the hill in game 2, tossing 5 innings of 3 run ball while striking out 4 in one of his best performances of the season but the Colts would once again find a way to defeat Cody.

The Cubs got great performances from both Thomasson and Wyatt Carlson, who threw 3.2 innings in the first game and gave up just 1 hit and 3 runs (1 earned).

Offensively the Cubs just couldn’t string together hits as the Colts pitching amped things up.

Following the Tuesday night contests the Cubs are now 16-13 on the season.

Up Next: Cody will play host to the World Team on Wednesday. You can hear the “B” squad live on KODI with first pitch at 5:30. “A” squad to follow.
