What's their record when they out-walk their opponent? My guess is 0-0. Have the CUBS ever out-walked their opponent ?? Don't mind me being a smart ass..... I'm not having a good day. CUBS are 8-3 when they draw more walks than they allow CUBS are 4-2 when the walks are equal for both teams CUBS are 6-25 when they allow more walks than they draw. Go CUBS !!

What's their record when they out-walk their opponent? My guess is 0-0. Have the CUBS ever out-walked their opponent ??

CUBS are 15-8 when they outhit the opponents. Go CUBS !!
