Cubs are the #1 power ranked team

     The Chicago Cubs are 86-47 making them the number one ranked team in the league. The Cubs are favored by many to win the world series for the first time in over 100 years. The young players should develop to even better ballplayers and the Cubs could be a dominant team for the next decade.

Cards didn't get sweep!

The ST. Louis Cardinals have not been swept since 2010 by the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs have a possibility doing it this year since they are playing so well. The cubs won the first game with a 5-0 shut out, leaving the Cardinal fans in worry of the Cubs sweeping them. But the Cards did not have the on there agenda the next two games. The Cards came out with there bats red hot not letting the Cubs to win the next two. This should be a good series the rest of the year for the fight National League Central.
 

Welcome Back!!!

Hello I missed a couple weeks of Baseball and Opening day. On Opening day the Pirates were my by far team that surprised me on how they played. With Francisco Liriano on the bumb he was dealing a great game, by far one of his best pitching games. Now lets talk about the recent! The Chicago Cubs are playing red hot! With there ace Jake Arrieta dicing through line ups where no one can catch them. We all know that the National league Central is going to be a tight race. Who do you think will win?   

Cubs search for a Win

Cubs vs Mets:
    The Chicago Cubs are down in the series 2-0. Tonight, they host game 3 and look forward to receiving a win. If the Cubs lose, they will be sitting in a 0-3 hole in the series which by MLB research, many teams don't come back. On the other hand, the Mets look forward to taking the series at Wrigley by winning 2 of these next 3 at least.

Blue Jays vs Royals

Game 3:
     The Toronto Blue Jays took on the Kansas City Royals in Toronto for game 3. The Royals came into the first inning with hits. They started on top 1-0. Heading into the bottom of the 2nd, the Blue Jays started rallying and got 3 runs. The Royals answered back with a run their-selves in the top of the third. In the bottom of the 3rd, the Blue Jays bats were on fire scoring 6 runs! The score was now 9-2 with the Blue Jays lead. Skipping a few innings and heading into the 9th, the Royals were down 11-4 but didn't give up yet. They scored 4 runs but it came to an end with the result being 11-8 Blue Jays win! The series is now 2-1 Kansas City with game 4 tonight in Toronto.

ALCS; NLCS

     The Chicago Cubs have went up against the New York Mets twice over the weekend. The Cubs are 7-0 against the Mets in the regular season but so far they are 0-2 this postseason against them. The outcome for those games were wins for the Mets. Many believed with Jake Arrieta on the mound, the Cubs would've gotten a W. In this case, Jake Arrieta gave up 3 runs in the first inning; not the typical Arrieta. These two teams battle tomorrow at Wrigley Field for game 3.
    On the other side, the Kansas City Royals match up against the Toronto Blue Jays. The Royals have a 2-0 series lead and battle tonight in Toronto for game 3. The Blue Jays and Royals were down 0-2 in the ALDS so the Blue Jays know what to do to come back in this series.

Pitching Battle For Game 5

    Everyone knew this game would have been a pitching battle, oh boy it was. Both pitches gave up runs in the first inning, but deGrom gave up 2. Greinke sat on that lead until the 4th inning when the Mets used good base running to score on a sac fly to tie the game. Now both pitchers preforming well not wanting to give up a lead. But in the 6th inning Murphy went yard and now the Mets have the lead 3-2. Once the 6th was over the Mets decide that deGrom was done for the day, 6 innings 7K. Greinke was pulled in the same inning he gave up the home run to Murphy. He went 6 2/3 innings with 9K. The Mets will now play the Cubs in the NLDS.
