The Cubs head to the desert, which is feeling especially desert-like already (high of 101 forecast for today). Since this is one of my two ‘local’ teams I’m out here to catch a few games and see some locals that I know. Thank the maker that (insert bank here) Park is air conditioned.
The Cubs just saw the Dbacks last week and took two of three at Wrigley, only losing to Zack Greinke. Luckily for the Cubs he pitched yesterday, so they dodge him in this series.

I’m switching to 2019 numbers now, though small sample sizes abound.
