2023 Game One-Hundred-Nineteen: Cubs 5, Blue Jays 4

 

Joey Bats et al

Guys, guys, guys: don't battle back from an early 4-1 deficit and tie it up only to lose it in the ninth when the Cubs push one across against Jordan Hicks; not in front of José Bautista, in town to be recognized on the Level of Excellence in a fine pre-game ceremony lessened only by how they always do those with the roof closed now to give them darkness for all the video stuff but which hurts the overall feel by surrounding everything in that weird light instead of the brilliant sunshine of, let's say, Tony Fernandez Day in the fall of 2001. Don't do that, guys; not today, of all days.
