The rocks entered this evening after winning three times over twenty-six games on the road this season. This does not mean that the Cubs were guaranteed to win, of course, and it does not mean either that I could not have told me about the edge if they lost. But that means that * if they had lost this evening, it would have been a real rarity of the season.
Fortunately, Michael Busch and Matt Shaw Combined to play hero in the 11th and browse the cubs of a winner:

The offensive could not do much tonight, in part with the wind that strikes at least one couple, partly with a few rockets in the guys, and partly just quite shabby for bats against the rocks. Listen, the offensive has been so good for so long that I’m not going to throw on them for tonight, but it was not a big offensive evening. However, they have always found a way to win.
It was a good start overall for Cade Horton, who really met only one round (which was a little fluey, when you look at him battery by battery). During six, you would say he was a little on a cruise. Craig Counsell sent him back for the 7th, however, probably for the match with Brenton Doyle, and he hung a cursor and abandoned a circuit to finish his night. A little bitter note, which ended up sending the game to extras. Shake it and look at the whole output: effective, some very nasty locations in there, and just a little more work required on the length / endurance / preservation of the 80 locations.
Good defense tonight for the Cubs, and above all an excellent work of the enclosure of the lifts.
With the starting blow, I must give the Law d’Ankin “making him personal” game of the game Honor to Matt Shaw, but I want to give it a little to the Baserunners of Cubs as a collective, of which Shaw was an active participant …
