I listened to this game on the radio and it sounded like the Cubs were victimized by stupid luck and crazy wind at times, though they made the plays that mattered and came out with a fun football score win. Per at least one media outlet and also their official records, Ian Happ’s pair of home runs puts him ahead of Kris Bryant on the all-time Cubs list, which was cool.
One more against Seattle, and then the Cubs don’t have to worry about them until the World Series (which, curiously, the Mariners have never appeared in)…

Rice Cube,
Doesn’t seem like he’s a major cog in SFs pitching, based on his stats.
But, until there is more substantial public information, I’m leaving this in Ann Lander’s MYOB bin.

Rice Cube,
You can only go so long as a great guy in the clubhouse. He made it 4.5 yr like that. His nickname should be Sylvester, because like the cat, he’s had an amazing number of resurrections. (Deserved, I’d say, since he seems like a super decent dude )

Saw at the end of the condensed game video that the poor Clark mascot guy had to fly the W in that suit, hope that thing has a good cooling system

Doesn’t help that Tigers only ever had 9 MVP players and most of them are known

Denny McLain was still at 8%. Tough rarity for that square.

I hadn’t seen this. Kind of hilarious trash talk. I will love it until I hate it.

I am going to predict that if the Cubs maintain a 100% FB rate they will win this game.

I’m going to suggest that Colin Rea should try throwing the fastball anywhere else but the exact middle of the zone

I can’t stand listening to Alex Cohen. He’s probably my least favorite announcer of all time in any sport.
