The White Sox entered Wrigley Field hoping to play spoiler and beat the Cubs 5-3. At least the Brewers, Reds, and Marlins lost, too. And by the way, Marcus Stroman is dealing with rib discomfort, so Javier Assad will likely get the start in tonight’s game. That’s all the bad news, and it’s relatively mild. Nobody expected the North Siders to win 12 straight against weaker competition, but I’m still confident they’ll win a big majority of the next 11 tilts.
