The Cubs pulled off their win of the season – and one of the best wins in the last decade – Wednesday to finish off a sweep of the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

Andy Martínez and Tony Andracki recap the wild week, The Christian Bethancourt Game and explain what it all means for the Cubs in the playoff race.

The Cubs are now 16-8 in August and a big reason for that success has been the performance from the bottom of the order. Dansby Swanson, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Miguel Amaya and Bethancourt have been phenomenal this month, combining for a .991 OPS in August.

We discuss all that and more on the latest Cubs Weekly Podcast and we even work in a little Caleb Williams and Bears chat with the new Marquee Sports Network Bears Insider Scott Bair.
