The Chicago Cubs had three walk-offs in one week
Within five days, the Chicago Cubs won three games with walk-off home runs. No walk-off singles. Nope. It’s all or nothing–and they’ve gone ‘all in.’
Maybe it’s because the expectation for the Chicago Cubs is as at its peak. And I’m not ‘comparing’ these two–but it’s felt a little bit like 2016 in the last few weeks. Clearly, this game of baseball can change its mind in a heartbeat and turn on you. The Cubs went from worst to first in a month. So you can’t assume anything in this game. But these games they’ve won in the past week? They lost those at the end of last season.
