Cubs win! As horrible as this season has been, the last game of the season is always bittersweet. Despite the horrible product on the field, it's been fun. Hopefully we'll have something to cheer about in 2007.

Ryu getting out of another self-created jam was just too good to be true. On the bright side (or not-so-bright side, depending on your perspective), the Pirates won.
I thought they were going to successfully appeal on Jock's check swing and tag him out after he stood there like a lump instead of running to first. Would have been a fitting way to end it.
There is part of me that wants to see it announced that Baker is coming back. The sheer entertainment value of the inevitable NSBB meltdown would almost be worth it. Almost...but not quite.
