This 3rd consecutive night game on the West Coast was on tap for Wednesday night. Have I told you I love late night Cubs games? I would not start this game off on the couch as I did for the previous two games. My son went to bed just a bit later tonight.
We had a heated soccer match going on in the basement which put the bath & reading of books behind slightly. But with the AC pumping, yes the Chicago summer looks to be roaring its head this week, he would fall asleep quickly. But, I missed the first inning…
And of course, it was an action packed first. I was following on Twitter. Almora not running a ball out, Baez staying hot, and then Contreras going deep was all that I missed in the top half. The Dodgers going deep, then getting some more guys on base, then a play at the play with Turner and Contreras going face to face, before the Dodgers scored again, and took a 3-2 lead after one. Glad I didn’t really miss anything…
2nd inning rolls around and I was locked and loaded… again. This time I wasn’t paying 100% attention; had some day job stuff to do… hate when I have to bring that home. But knocked that out, and now I’m knocking this out.
Hendricks was a disaster. I’m thinking it’s actually the perfect time to propose a trade for him in our fantasy baseball league. He won’t continue to be this bad. His control hasn’t been precise, which leads to walks and giving up a bunch of bombs. I heard he got squeezed in the first inning too… Regardless, he has to be better. The way Lester has lead this staff, Hendricks needs to be that solid #2. Of course seeing him on the mound vs the Dodgers takes me back to a happy place.

The results on this evening would be much different. 6 runs when it was all said and done. But, the Cubs chipped away, and actually pulled within 1 run in the 8th inning, before the bullpen finally cracked and gave up another run. Cubs go down again.
Tomorrow is the opportunity to split the series against some guy named Kershaw. And… it’s the end of the night game run. An afternoon game in LA on tap for Thursday.
I like when Len mentioned would this be the last time we’d see the Dodgers. It’s very possible that we meet in the playoffs for the 3rd straight year. It’s that type of stuff, the multiple postseason meetings between the same teams that builds up that hate. I’m already feeling it. I wouldn’t mind facing them again.
I’m winding down now. Need to get some sleep. These late night games are catching up to me. Back to bed at an earlier time Thursday night, hopefully peacefully, after a Cubs win.

Time to even the series after this dud. Hendricks has been nowhere near himself, and he openly admits that he needs to be better. I believe he will be. With him, it is all about location, location, location. He has to hit his spots and cannot miss up. I definitely like to flash back to game 6 of the nlcs vs lala. Im sure Kyle would love to get back to that. I know he will. Now the Cubs have to take out kershaw to split the series. Will it be another nlcs vs lala? Tbd, but I wont mind. We know each other very well, and the Cubs have some payback for last year! GO CUBS GO!!!
