I still haven’t been to a Cubs game since 2019, but Brett is on his way to Wrigley Field right now. I’m jealous.
Anyway, the Cubs are having trouble escaping the gravitational pull of .500 baseball, but they still have a shot at a four-game series win over the Nationals this afternoon. Joe Ross is on the mound for the bad guys and Trevor Williams will try to right the ship for Chicago. Go Cubs.
