Cubs baseball is back. Other fans have to wait another day for their teams to get back into action, but MLB started a spotlight game this year, and the Cubs and Cardinals are it. The game is tonight at Wrigley Field, kicking off a five-game set against the Cardinals (in four days).
Can the Cardinals salvage their season and turn course, starting today? Or will this be their last gasp? Given that they’re already 7.5 games back of the Cubs and behind so many other teams in the Wild Card race, this series really could turn their season … in one direction or the other.
And these will be the freshly Matheny-less Cardinals, too. Who knows what kind of psychological boost that could offer a club, especially right after the break, and especially heading out to face a rival at their place. I reckon the Cardinals will be ready to play.

"Why is Mike Trout not as big as LeBron" asks the league that makes it illegal to stream your favorite team if you are within 12 hours of them.

Justin Buchanan eluded security and police after running onto the field during a #Reds game. Then he tweeted it, leading police right to him. @Williams_Justin follows up with the Reds Runner three years later. https://t.co/QfSf12e0S4

To this day, Cubs fans make the pilgrimage to Mordecai 'Three Finger' Brown's Indiana birthplace. I took the trip myself. Directions? Highway 36 until you see the Amish buggy. Make a right. When you reach 1876, you’ve arrived in Nyesville, Indiana. https://t.co/n1M3GKPC5t
