Weird as hell seeing Fowler in a Cardinal uni, but better than seeing him on the North side. He completely changes the complexion of the lineup on offense and defense. I knew he had a good rep as a great clubhouse guy, etc and I think it shows in the video. He’s fun, huge smile,…

I got home late tonight so I didn’t make it to the rodeo with the family. So, now I’m looking at baseball tickets, hoping to watch the Cardinals play the Red Sox at Fenway next year. Yes, I’m addicted to baseball. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right?

Congrats to all my Cub fan friends, and especially to many of your parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc, who finally had their patience rewarded last night.

For all the Joe Buck haters, and there have been plenty. He’s been around and seen more great baseball than most of us can even imagine. He understands the gravity of this series and these two teams. https://www.foxsports.com/mlb/story/chicago-cubs-world-series-wrigley-field-joe-buck-102716

Turned on the game and I saw Heyward was playing. I was wondering how many runs they’d have to get up to put in the $184 million dollar man.  I think he’s better next year, but he’s definitely not a $20+ million/yr player.

A 1-1 split is all the Cubbies needed headed back to Chicago. You guys are looking pretty good! As a baseball fan, I just hope it goes 7 games. Although I’m sure many Cubs fans could do without all the heart palpitations of a game 7.

I love history and the best part for me about a Cleveland vs Chicago World Series is all the fun historical facts. Here’s a pretty cool one that relates to our Illini Baseball team. https://fightingillini.com/news/2015/10/13/Baseball_1013154143.aspx

The 2016 Cardinals were one of the strangest baseball teams I’ve watched in my life. Their biggest flaw, bad defense, is the easiest to fix. Our fans are so spoiled when a “bad” year is playing for the postseason on the last day of the season and finishing 86-76. Excited to see a full year…
