Certainly after what I think was my most exuberant recap of the year, I’d have loved a little more carryover. With Marcus Stroman on the hill, I had hope. But, he had some early control issues and a few shift busters later, the Cubs were looking up at a 3-0 lead against a team that doesn’t surrender a lot of runs of any sort, and certainly not when they have control of a game.
I’ve been impressed by the run the Brewers have had in recent years. While they irritate me, they always seem to get so much out of so little.
