After St. Louis Cardinals pinch-hitter Randal Grichuk hit a fifth-inning home run in Game 2 of the American League Division Series Friday night, he came out for a curtain call.
It was strange. The dinger cut Chicago's lead to 6-3, the eventual final score. It was big, but certainly not a heroic walkoff in extra innings.
When Cubs catcher Kyle Schwarber belted one out in the second inning of Game 3, the team’s official account dropped a bomb on the Cards.
Wait were we supposed to give @kschwarb12 a curtain call? @Cardinals?
