Yep, pretty par for the course for the Cubs. We had the tying run on third with one out. Perfect scenario for a sac fly at the very least, but in typical Cubs fashion we get a weak grounder for a DP. Wasted RISP makes me want to pull my hair out.

In other news, Pena was just short of finally hitting a HR for us. Man, he is garbage at the plate.

Agreed. He was probably 6 or 8 inches shy of a HR yesterday. Looks like we got ourselves a $10 million platoon player.

His 2nd almost homer of year!! Will he get more Bunt Singles or Homers this year??

Old Style You still get to make the Dodgers Series Thread since we split with Arizona.

Oops, wasn't sure how that would go. I'll get that started right away.
