CHICAGO -- Clinching day is finally here.

A Chicago Cubs victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday night at Wrigley Field or a loss by the St. Louis Cardinals later in the evening at San Francisco would secure the Cubs' first division title since 2008. After that, they could lose their final 16 games and still make the postseason.
“It’ll be fun,” Anthony Rizzo said before leaving St. Louis on Wednesday. “It will be a good weekend at Wrigley. We will really enjoy it when we do clinch.
