I would probably revel in this anyway since it directly impacts the standings, but since the Cubs are off today, it was all the more enjoyable to watch the Padres’ 9th inning comeback against the Brewers.
Capped off by now-Cubs-fan-favorite Hunter Renfroe hitting a grand slam, and tossing his bat magnificently:

The loss by the Brewers knocks them 2.0 games behind the Cubs in the NL Central.
