I will forever have a soft spot in my heart for the Cubbies after this season. With the way we handled them, and the way they handled the Cards, it was a beautiful thing.
Cubs pen trying to go Co-Co on us. 1st and 3rd with one out.
Uh-oh... Bases jacked for Holliday.
Marmol is no Co-Co on a 1-2 count. Whiff...
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPP. A closer with stuff.
Bye.
First three game sweep for Chicago in StL since 1988. No lie.
Magic number now 10.
That Cubs sweep came over Garcia/Wainwright/Carpenter. So, yeah.

Cards now below .500 vs. the Division. Without the 12-6 against the Good Guys, the reds would be up by 14 games.
Cubs/Cards is a huge rivalry. Most of the 40K were sold by Opening Day. Impressive, the Cardinals must have a 30K+ season ticket base cause that place looked like Dolphin Stadium by the 9th inning.
White flag flown earlier. We just gotta go 10-6 and the Cards can do whatever they want.

Um wow. If someone would have told me about this scenerio that the Reds have going right now back before the season started, I would have called them totally crazy. This is fun!
