“Days turn to minutes and minutes to memories.” – John Mellencamp, Minutes to Memories
The Cubs lost a big game on Monday they should have won as baseball begins its push for the postseason. Chicago is 3.5 games behind the Braves in the Wild Card race with the Mets positioned between both. The Cubs and Pirates will play the second game of their series this evening while the Braves host the Rockies and the Mets welcome the Red Sox.
Jameson Taillon deserved a win last night and might have had one if Tyson Miller and Porter Hodge pitched in the 8th and 9th innings instead of Jorge López and Shawn Armstrong.
