A couple of quick thoughts off of the top here. First, this felt like one of the longest Cub games of the year (and as it turned out, it was the longest nine-inning game the Cubs have played in 2023). I didn’t check any numbers before sitting down to write. I’ve definitely loved quicker baseball this season, but if the White Sox want to initiate a slow moving train wreck that more or less gift wraps another win, I’ll let it take its time.
My second thought is that I love when the Cubs win a game and I’m not entirely sure who the Superhero is going to be.
