The Cubs taking 2 of the 3 from the Brewers in Milwaukee while facing Jacob Misiorowski, Kyle Harrison, and Brandon Woodruff and pitching Colin Rea, David Peterson, and Ryan Rolison feels like a turning point this summer. Not to mention, the boys have won 12 of their last 16. LFG
Some kid watched that game from home or in the stadium tonight and had a life-altering moment. Because of this game and this World Cup, he will represent perhaps an even better USMNT in the future. Thatโs how important this World Cup is.
Full Alex Bregman quote. His OPS is down to .669: โIโve been terrible. I need to play better. Offensively, its been awful. Iโve failed many times in this game. Iโve struggled. Iโve started slow before, Iโve started fast before. When youโre struggling, there is only one way forward and thatโs straight, head-on through it. It comes down to executing in the game. I havenโt executed all year. Runners in scoring position, Iโve been god-awful. I need to be better. If Iโm better over the last how many games, we probably win the majority of them.โ

Jared McCain on Daryl Morey trading him: โItโs never to prove anybody wrong. I try to keep a positive outlook. I like proving my support system right. Darylโs still the guy that drafted me, so Iโll always have love for him for that. He believed in me enough to take me at No. 16.โ
