The crazy thing is, when the Cubs lead the White Sox 6-0, that’s a completely insurmountable lead. Cannot be overcome. Never seen it before. No chance.
Anyway, Patrick Wisdom just hit his team-leading 24th homer (his third homer of the series already), which has him on the path to breaking a Cubs record despite playing way under a full season:

Wisdom has played barely half a season at this point, and he's gonna break this Cubs record: pic.twitter.com/vXFzSF2lX1

The Cubs loaded the bases shortly thereafter against Lance Lynn, and Rafael Ortega unloaded them:
