The Rundown: Cubs Roll Continues, El Mago Celebrates Anniversary With Big Night, Injuries Mounting

That was a thriller at Wrigley last night, yes? Still, the Cubs remain undefeated on this homestand with a 6-5 win over the A’s. That’s not surprising, but let’s not beat that home/road split horse to death. If we ignore Chicago’s road struggles, maybe they will just go away. Stranger things have happened.

Back in 1998, Denzel Washington made a movie called Fallen, which was a decent enough thriller that really got ripped by the critics. The gist of the movie is that Denzel arrests a murderer who uses some sort of spell to pull an evil spirit named Azazel into his body just as he is executed, and with each touch of another being, the spirit is transferred from one living vessel to another, until the surprise ending, which — spoiler alert — is actually revealed at the start of the movie.
