Quick thought...if im a manager opposing Lester..i have the entire lineup bunt to lester and make him field. Im with smotlz..why every runner doesn't steal is beyond me??

if he is that freaked out about throwing over they should definitely be taking off. they are already getting large and almost walking leads. dodgers definitely should have run last night once it got to 3-1.

Ugh, just like the Yankees didn't bunt on Schilling's fake ketchup ankle...

I don't get it either. Lester was basically giving the Dodgers 2nd base.

I'm so nervous and anxious about the game tonight. I don't want to celebrate early. I keep thinking "only 5 outs away" from 2003.

I can't imagine what it will feel like to win the pennant. THE WAITING DROVE ME MAD!!!

There's a slim chance that schwarber could be added to the WS roster and used as a DH if when the cubs make the WS. He's been added to the AFL roster and is starting tonight.

Sounds to me like a Giants fan saying they want the Dodgers to win.

Let's get it done tonight. Hopefully the usual playoff Kershaw will show up and we can knock him around a little.

Game time. Here we go. See y'all on the other side.

4-0 after 4 1/2 & Hendricks looking good up to this point.

Holy shit what a night. Been a hectic couple weeks. I have a relative who works in MLB and is able to request post season tickets for 1 team each year. Sometimes he gets em, sometimes he doesn't. Well he was able to purchase Wrigley Field World series tickets this year. He kept game 4 for himself but gave me games 3 and 5 for face value. A meager $200 a ticket. Looking at 3 grand just to get in the door for standing room only on stubhub. The tickets arrived today and I was hoping so hard I'd get to use em. Ill be living out a life long dream Friday and possibly Sunday if it goes 5 attending the WORLD SERIES AT WRIGLEY FIELD!!! I admittedly balled for about 5 minutes after they won. The birth of my son and wedding are the only things that will top this experience.

Enjoy it. I went to one World Series game as a fan (GM 3 2000 Mets-Yankees) and covered it in 2009 and last year in New York with the Mets. These are tremendous events to be at, especially one like this upcoming series.

Believe me. Not a second will go bye while I don't realize how absolutely lucky and fortunate I am to get this experience. Life long dream come true. I still can't stop crying from all the emotions.

Congrats from an Angels fan especially since I grew up watching them in the 89 season on WGN with my late grandpa, who died last year, since he grew up in Chicago and was a Cubs and Sox fan and since Maddon was the bench coach for my team years ago. Always liked him and preferred him over Scioscia. Always nice to see teams end droughts.

Merkin Baller

Congrats Cubs fans; while you're still 4 wins from the ultimate prize, just getting to the WS is a feat in and of itself. Enjoy!!!

This Red Sox fan will never forget '04, best of luck to you.
