BTW, the Cubs’ wild-card “miracle number” is 45. They play 38 more games, which means now is the time to root for the Phillies to lose a bunch. And the Astros, Marlins, Nationals, Mets & Brewers too.
At least we weren’t saying “wait ’til next year” on June 1. Which brings up another question.
Will White Sox fans cheer louder for their team playing in October or for the fact that the Cubs’ won’t be? Don’t bet against signs at Comiskular pointing this out come playoff time.
