I’ll be honest with you, folks, I don’t feel much like writing about tonight’s matchup. Not long ago, I got the news that a friend of mine passed away unexpectedly. Michael K. Owens was one of the best people I’ve ever met, a dude with a heart of gold who never met a stranger and always went out of his way to make everyone feel special. My first time in a suite at Wrigley, first time sitting in the front row there, and first Wu-Tang Clan concert all came with Mike at my side.
Maybe the Cubs can win one for Mike as they return to the site of the greatest victory in baseball history.
