Back from California now, I got to follow the doubleheader between the Chicago Cubs and the Cincinnati Reds. I also got to listen to the last bits of the Kyle Schwarber game Tuesday night, including the go-ahead (and eventual game-winning) home run.
In addition to a new, snarky Cubs Twitter, this year we Cubs fans get to enjoy the forging of a perennial contender around a young core of talented and frustrating players. This means we’re treated to many Cubs fans blowing up over lineup issues, Starlin Castro, or whatever else they’re mad at that day.
