September 26, 2020: Ten Spot

posted in: Cubs, White Sox | 0

This is how we draw it up. This is what we thought we would see a lot more of after that hot start. It’s been a while, but for one night on the south side, the Cubs put it all together, putting up a ten spot, throwing a shutout, and absolutely wiping the Sox out 10-0 in this season finale series opener.

I thought maybe the White Sox twitter department took the night off. Always quick with the witty comments after the Sox do something well… laying it on thick after that first series between these two, when the Sox were doing the ass kicking. Well, like mama said, take your medicine. It’s only one game, but man, that was like nail meet hammer. Like I said, at least there will be one baseball team in Chicago regaining some positive momentum after this weekend; there are still two games to go.

Schwarber boom. Contreras boom. Baez boom. Caratini boom. Contreras boom, again. And of course the big footnote, the newest cross town moment to remember, the bat that was flipped that still hasn’t come down. That felt like all the Cubs players’ frustrations, all the fans’ frustrations, let out in one gargantuan bat flip. Even Tim Anderson could learn from that one…

Yeah, and on the bump, it was more of the same from one of the finalists for the NL Cy Young award this year. Putting together an impressive second half in 2019, following it up with a lights out short 60 games in 2020, Yu has been damn impressive, shutting down the Sox for the 2nd time this year. It felt a lot easier this time, with all those runs, with the Sox not blazing hot like the first time around. Yeah, this win was pretty satisfying.

Magic number is one for the Cubs, while the Sox have slipped into wild card position. Like I said, I’m not putting too much stock in that. Wherever both teams finish, all it takes is winning 2 out of 3 to kickstart a playoff run, regardless of the late season struggles. Speaking of late season struggles… did not realize Robert was on a 0-28 run, but that’s not uncommon for a rookie; the key will be how he responds to the league’s response to his hot start. And yeah, forget the late season struggles, the ALL season struggles of most of the Cubs’ bats… sure felt good to see some bombs from the boys. Imagine if this offense wakes up…

So yeah, that bat still hasn’t landed by the way, and yeah, that was Baez batting left handed and getting a hit. Inject this game into my veins. Let’s do it again. Let’s get on a roll and hit the postseason hot. What a difference a win makes. Go Cubs!
