Exciting end to the Jays - Red Sox game!

Cubs are now 9-3, with the Cardinals to play tonight (live again, but starts at 1am 😞) who have crept up into second place, 7-5.....

There must be a chance that the Cubs win the World Series and Hibs win the cup in the same year. I'm concerned that this would somehow end the Universe.

Long, long way to go yet but Cubs are the bookies favourite and they've just beaten the Cardinals twice, 0-5 and 1-2 - the Cardinals former pitcher John Lackey playing a starring role in both wins for the Cubs. If they win again tonight then they'll have swept the Cards at Busch Stadium.

100 years ago today, the Cubs played their first game at what is now called Wrigley Field. At that point, they'd gone just 7 seasons without winning the World Series

As Tony Kornheiser has been saying to wind up Wilbon; the Cubs are the '27 Yankees
