    Gonna get to Wrigley in a few weeks. Sunday night game against the Cards. Gonna be out in Chicago for a conference, and figure I gotta head to a game. Pretty excited.

    Remember this date in Cubs history.

    Heyward just got a hit!

    Happens about once a week.

    And grandpa Ross hit a HR. Perhaps a more frequent event than Heyward gettinga hit.

    Heyward a hit, Lester an RBI, Ross a 2-run homer...

    We damn well better finish this game with a W!!

    You mean he didn't hit two 2 hop grounders to 2nd and k twice???

    I think Lester might be the guy to start game 1.

    I think that's a foregone conclusion at this point. I bet Hendricks takes the mound for game 2 and Arrieta for game 3.

    Congrats to you. Love the throwback Cubs name. I don't have kids nor do I plan on having any, but if I do, Maddux is my first choice. But then again, how often do the fathers get to pick the name.

    Thanks

    I'm so excited for the game tonight. I'm kind of glad we didn't clinch in St. Louis just because it'll be nice for the fans at Wrigley to see the guys celebrate at home. Really hoping I don't have to cancel my hotel reservation for October 29th and 30th.

    I honestly think who we start in game 1 will come down to match-ups. If it's a lefty heavy lineup, I say we go with Lester. Righty.....would it really matter? Arrieta, Hendricks....pick your poison.
