Much like this blasé spring, the Neepawa Cubs are not off to the hottest of starts, as the team has dropped two of their first three games. Their most recent matchups on the Santa Clara Baseball League schedule included a 6-6 tie with the Portage Padres on Wednesday, May 24 and a 10-3 loss to the Austin A’s on Sunday, May 28.
