And it did. Hope the Cardinals enjoyed the week or two ahead of the Cubs in the standings.

Shoulda sent Forsythe home on the errant throw by Molina. Worth the risk to walk it off, especially with Wong's second baseman arm.

What a scary collision. No way Pederson doesn't have a concussion between Puig's elbow and the outfield wall.

maybe he shouldn't have changed the signs so much so Kershaw didn't mistakenly think he called for the 2 base wild pitch I mean, it was a blockable pitch. Certainly a little awareness would've kept Grichuk to 1 base.

Yasmani Grandal can horsefeathers off. Great defense, asshat.

Lynn's only through 8. St Louis is on the road.

Lance Lynn, coming off TJS, just threw 123 pitches to get through 8.

That's what I thought too before Len and Twitter disagreed.

A Maddux! Guess we did the Giants a favor by coming back in Game 4.

In high school, my friend got hit in the nuts by the throw while sliding into home.

Don't complain about rainouts again or it'll be a 20-spot, Brewers.

Wish you could tag posters in a specific post. Ahh well, TT will surely find this. Gleyber got promoted to AAA.

He didn't come out for the 7th so that's his final line. Apparently before that HR, Alzolay had gone 9 consecutive innings without a hit so he's given up 1 hit in his last 12.

I believe if Zobrist is leading off, they won't be batting the pitcher 8th.

3rd in 8 games.

So that's what Cubs Twitter was mocking Tom Hardicourt about. I wouldn't know, he blocked me for mocking his since-deleted tweet saying Theo Epstein was committing career suicide by going to the Cubs.

I'd love to get a well-regarded upper minor league pitching prospect too but I just don't see the Cubs matching up for that type of trade when they're World Series contenders.
