“You look at me, you’ve got nothing left to say. I moan and pout at you until I get my way.” – Only Wanna Be With You by Hootie & The Blowfish
A sweep, a sweep, my kingdom for a sweep. Why are they so hard to come by for Chicago’s North Side Baseballers? Sure, the Cubs are 9-6 and have won three straight series, but they could have swept all three. Chicago would be riding a nine-game winning streak were it not for a tough 8-7 loss to the Padres and yesterday’s 6-2 defeat at the hands of the Rangers, who were aided by three cheap home runs.
