Overall, the Chicago Cubs have been exciting to watch this season. Leading the league in walk-off wins will do that, but the level of play on the field has been so much better than in the past few years. But the St. Louis Cardinals slapped a little bit of reality back into the Cubs this weekend, adding three games to their lead over them and letting them know their time isn’t yet. Will the Cardinals EVER have a bad year? It doesn’t feel like it.
Cubs skipper Joe Maddon said it best after being swept in the three-game set.
