Cubs fans silent late in the game. Their collective sphincters are so tight.. it seems they fear the worst. 1-1 going to LA, and I'm willing to bet they're thinking the Cubs won't make it back from the West Coast.

Cubs in 6.

As much as the Jays bats have struggled, the Cubs bats have struggled even worse and they have a better lineup. Outside Bryant and Baez the rest of the lineup has been pretty awful. Gotta wake up soon or another cursed year for the Cubs.

Hope the Cubs can pull through and win this series.

A Cleveland vs Chicago World Series would be fun. The two longest championship droughts in MLB.

Cubs last won in 1908
Indians last won in 1948.

Cubs get away with blocking the bag on the pickoff. I can't understand why that is never called in MLB.

Another 4+ hour 9 inning game tonight.

Quite ridiculous, actually.

Baez may be the slowest pitcher of all time

Dexter Fowler is exactly what the Jays were missing in their post season run, and he's showing it here tonight.

Switch hitting speedster with the ability to get on base and lead off the order.

Hopefully the Jays go after him, put him left or right field.

I'm fully on the Cubs bandwagon if they make it through.

Hopefully they completely demolish Cleveland's hurting pitching the way the Jays should have but couldn't.

Epstein's legacy if he gets the Cubs a World Series? The Cursekiller. He'll be a legend.
