Well, dere we were—Da Cubbies—headin’ into Arizona, facin’ da Diamondbacks in Game Two o’ da Wild Card, an’ let me tell ya… DA BULLS—DA BEARS—DA CUBS! Dose sneaky snakes didn’t stand a chance.
Right off da bat, ya got young Eric Boyce on da mound. Dis kid? Dis kid’s got da stuff. Seven innings, two lousy hits, one run. I ain’t sayin’ he’s Greg Maddux… but I ain’t not sayin’ it either.
Den in da seventh inning—BOOM! Vinny Rodrigues comin’ off da bench like he just polished off a Polish sausage an’ said, “Put me in, coach, I’m feelin’ dangerous.” One pitch, one swing, DOUBLE! Cubs take da lead, Arizona fans start cryin’ into dere cactus water. Classic moment.
An’ den ya got B. Guggenheim drivin’ in another one—Guggenheim! Dat’s a name ya put on a museum, not an RBI column, but hey, whatever works!
Final score: Cubs 3, Diamondbacks 1.
Series tied. Momentum shiftin’. Da Cubbies are back in business.
Tomorrow? One more in Arizona. Winner moves on. And lemme tell ya somethin’:
If Boyce pitches like dat again… if Vinny comes off da bench like a Polish sausage-fueled superhero… I like our chances.
CUBS… IN THREE!
