“It ain’t over until it’s over” — Yogi Berra
You’ve probably heard Yogi Berra’s well-known aphorism above many times. And indeed, it’s true, on many levels.
The Chicago Cubs’ 2019 baseball season ain’t over. Quoting another Berraism: “it’s getting late early out there.”
The Cubs ran themselves out of innings, then got some fine relief work until the fact that far too many players on this team are injured caught up with them and they lost to the Reds 3-2 in 10 innings Wednesday night.
It was not a fatal blow to the Cubs’ playoff hopes, or chances.
