Well, give it to Wade Davis. When he blows up, he really blows up – he leaves little room for question.
The first blown save in 32 chances for Chicago’s All-Star closer allowed the second-place Brewers to steal a 4-3 victory from the Cubs at Miller Park. (Technically, it’s two blown saves, right?)
Alas, the Cardinals, too, lost on Saturday night – an 11-6 setback to the Pirates – to minimize the damage and drop the Cubs magic number to 4. The Cubs’ lead in the NL Central is 4.5 games over Milwaukee and 5 over the Redbirds.
