I really like how people are making a big deal out of the pep talk he gave the rest of the team and then he....goes and has probably the worst at bat he's had all season. I guess it worked for the other guys! Maybe he's a magical talisman and he gave the Cubs good juju all season, but well, whatever. Tough season for the guy, he made more than a few great plays in the World Series to rob hits, he deserves the ring for never hanging his head at any moment. Yeah, hopefully that was just an especially bad capper moment to an unfortunate offensive season for him. I mean, I get it; he's stupidly vulnerable to fastballs and there's a fastball pitcher on the mound, so he's just dead set on making contact with the fastball he knows is coming...though even then, I'd rather he just bunt. At least he didn't hit in to a DP.
