10/15/2016 Los Angeles Dodgers 4, Chicago Cubs 8

Wrigley Field, Chicago, IL
NLCS Game 1

The Home Run that shook Wrigley Field

If not for this amazing moment, folks might remember that Javier Baez stole home (and wasn't really trying to), or that Andre Ethier hit a pinch hit Home Run, or even that Aroldis Chapman blew a chance for a 6-out save for the second time in this posteason. They also might remember Dexter Fowler's solo taco immediately following this, or that Adrian Gonzalez stole a base.

CHC leads the Series 1-0

10/11/2016 Chicago Cubs 6, San Francisco Giants 5

AT&T Park, San Francisco, CA

NLDS Game 4

There are too many words that could be said about this game, so I'm going to pick two facts:

1) The Cubs are headed for the NLCS

2) Javier Baez absolutely pwns

10/10/2016 Chicago Cubs 5, San Francisco Giants 6

AT&T Park, San Francisco

NLDS Game 3

Joe Panik comes through to give the Giants their first win of the series, ending a 5-hour 13-inning affair that saw the Cubs scratching and clawing to stay alive, despite efforts by Jake Arrieta (channeling Hendricks and T.Wood) and Kris Bryant (channeling Ryne Sandberg)

As they say, we'll see you again tomorrow night...don't Panik

NLDS Game 2

The poetry of baseball is often homely when its rhythm is disturbed by the absence of pitchers in the batting order (as they SHOULD be)...case in point:

8/29/2016 Charlotte Knights 2, Louisville Bats 7

Louisville Slugger Field, Louisville, KY

Game 1 of 3

I've grabbed 2 foul balls in 2 consecutive games...tonight, it's Sam's turn...later, he ran into a buddy who was at the game with his Dad, who was celebrating his birthday. Like a champ, Sam gave him the ball. Happy Birthday! #SmellBaseball

The Bats have 4 more home games after tonight, but for me...it's the last game of the season.

CHA CF Adam Engel is well known in these parts from his time as a University of Louisville Cardinal, tonight marked the Slugger Field debut of UofL fireballer RHP Zack Burdi...it's always weird to see a guy in College at this level in a matter of 5 months or so...
