CUBS CAN CLINCH TOMORROW

The Cubs ended up taking 2 out of 3 from the Brewers to knock their magic number down to 2. A win tomorrow, followed by a Milwaukee loss at Cincy will clinch the division for the Cubs.

After this series you can might see Brewers fans start to lose it. Sabathia gets beat, Sheets is out, and the pen blows a 4 run lead with 2 outs in the 9th. Must be rough...But hey, we've been there before too so I don't feel the least bit sorry for them.

The Cubs did it once again, coming from behind late in the game again. Even I had conceded this one to the brew crew, and I usually hold out till the bitter end.

It will be a bit anti-climatic if the Cubs clinch via a Brewers loss tomorrow night. Personally, I hope both teams win tomorrow so the clinching can happen Saturday at Wrigley. It would be great if the hometown fans could celebrate with the team after a win.

Just think how great it would have been to clinch today!

Big Z takes the hill tomorrow. If only he does as well as his last start, we should be in the ballgame and have a chance at the end! That's all you can ask for isn't it?

Boo. That's all I have to say. And yes, Brewers fans are starting to lose it, especially me. We're now down 2.5 games on the WC. I am giving up hope...but don't worry I will keep cheering against the Cubs!
