This game is hilarious. The Cardinals should be up like 10-1 right now. They've stranded 15 runners on base in eight innings. 15! Meanwhile, the Cubs got three of their runs on a Barney homer that landed in the bottom of the basket and now they string together a total fluke rally in the 8th starting with a bloop single that lands an inch out of Carpenter's glove.
So glad I didn't bet this game. I'd be furious if I had StL. This is what makes baseball so hard to beat; the Cubs have no business being in this game, yet here we are: 6-6.
