PCA IS THE FIRST CUBS PLAYER IN HISTORY WITH 20 HR & 20 SB BEFORE THE ALL-STAR BREAK

What an opening sequence.

Craig Counsell said the Cubs needed to run the bases better—and they did. In the 2nd, Matt Shaw sprinted from 1st to 2nd to avoid an innning-ending DP—led to 3 runs. In the 5th, PCA beat a force out at 2nd that would’ve ended the inning—3 more runs. 6 total runs from these two.

Not enough people talk about Kenny Lofton:

• .299/.372/.423
• 68.4 WAR
• 622 (!!!) SB
• 4 Gold Gloves
• 2428 hits, 1528 runs
• Never struck out 85x
• Led league in SB 5x

Somehow, just a one-and-done on his only HOF ballot (3.2% or the vote in 2013). An injustice!

how it feels to eat ice cream out of a non-helmet container at a baseball game

To say Wrigley went nuts is a massive understatement

Christopher Morel blasted a walkoff bomb and his reaction is as good as it gets

Did you ever wonder why Rodney tilts his hat? Heres why, his father died 6 days before Fernando made his major league debut with the Tigers in 2002. Ulise Rodney was a fisherman and wore his cap tilted to the side because that's the side the sun hits his face.

Think Bonds stats were inflated because of steroids from 1999 onwards? Cool. These are his stats from 1986-1998 when he was clean

99.9 War
.290/.411/.556 slash line
.967 OPS
411 Home Runs
3 MVPs
7 Silver Sluggers
8 Gold Gloves

This shouldn’t even be a discussion

[Bleacher Nation @BleacherNation]

Just 17 days ago, the Cubs were 8.5 games out in the NL Central.

That's now down to 1.5 games.

The Cubs did that in barely two weeks. That is ridiculous.

HOLY COW!! MIKE TAUCHMAN!

CUBS WIN!
