The “What’s the line, Bart?” gif seems pretty appropriate at this point.

A very small thing, but the way Alcantara just positioned himself to catch that fly ball so he was in a good position to throw if the runner tagged tells me how much better the Cubs have gotten at the details over the years.

Always more fun to clinch on a win. I will remain nervous until there are fewer outs needed than runs the Cubs are ahead (I like to call it the 2003 Alex Gonzalez syndrome).

We're there. 4 run lead, 3 outs to go.

We did it!  Jed managed to build a playoff team

Congrats Cubs!

[We Got The Whole 9]

They have had a fantastic season and they can win it just as realistically as any of the other playoff teams. 

 

Super happy to be back in the dance!

 

Great job Jed!

Can we bank some over the next 2 weeks and apply them until later? Like an uno-reverse card? 

[mul21]

I really, really like Ian Happ.  He's such a thoughtful dude.

[bukie]

The Cubs have now clinched a better record than the DBacks.

Next up: Mets and Rangers

Magic number to clinch at least 5 seed: 2

Me, too.  I was good to see him catching the last one, and had a little interview.
