Brown Bombers

Nice to see the Padres win the division last night. 

I watched it on Peacock. 

Looking forward to the Brewers series. 

Everything seems to be clicking right at the moment.

As for the Cubs:

Crow-Armstrong, who could be the unanimous NL MVP, went 0-for-7 across the two games against San Diego, striking out four times in the process. Bregman, the veteran leader in the clubhouse, went 0-for-8 with four strikeouts as well.

Hey Chicago, don't focus on that. Be happy that you actually scored a run.

That loud noise you hear in the background? That's all the Cub fans who have suddenly become South Siders. Go Sox.

Some faint but snarky praise from up Dodger's way.

Ultimately, it's bad news for the Dodgers that the Padres are moving on (though we can probably trust Milwaukee to make quick work of them), but it's still delightful that they helped to silence a common enemy.

Quick work of them? We swept Milwaukee at home this year in three games, 4-2 overall.

No way Palencia didn't intend to hit Cronenworth in the back last night after the Sheets home run. What an a-hole.

Speaking of Sheets, everyone is acting like the home run was a surprise. He did the same thing four days ago against the D-Backs. Guy is so strong.
