Cubs fans dreaming of playoffs after Phillies' Nick Castellanos walks off Braves

The Chicago Cubs have some hope in the National League Wild Card. After a brutal start to the season, they have hit their stride and the fans are beginning to believe after Sunday's results. The Cubs swept the Nationals and Nick Castellanos hit a walk-off single to beat the Atlanta Braves. Even with the Mets between them, their fans have taken to social media to celebrate the Braves loss.

@BleacherNation, a fan-run blog, posted on Sunday night, “Cubs legend, Nick Castellanos! #BravesLose”

They then posted the standings, which show just a three-game deficit in the NL Wild Card standings for the Cubs.
