The 2020 Chicago Cubs season was the 149th season of the Chicago Cubs franchise, the 145th in the National League and the Cubs' 105th season at Wrigley Field. The Cubs were managed by David Ross,[1] in his first year as Cubs manager, and played their home games at Wrigley Field as members of Major League Baseball's National League Central. The Cubs opened the season on July 24 against the Milwaukee Brewers and finished the season on the road against the Chicago White Sox.[2]
The Cubs clinched a playoff berth on September 22, 2020, when the Philadelphia Phillies were swept in a doubleheader.[3] This marked the Cubs' fifth playoff appearance in the previous six years.[4] Four days later, they clinched the National League Central Division for the first time since 2017.[5] They finished the regular season 34–26 to win the division by three games. They received the No. 3 seed in the newly expanded playoffs.[6] However, they were swept in the NLWCS by the Miami Marlins.[7]
The season was shortened to a 60-game schedule due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[8]
