How to break out of an enormous slump:

1. Be a former Cub
2. Play against the Cubs

Also lol at that dance remix of The Godfather theme that played after Rizzo's double.

Turns out it's some pregame ceremony for Wade Boggs, idk if it got delayed or they just weirdly listed that as the start time instead of actual first pitch

Braves still behind but did set a franchise record of now 26 straight games with a homer

Elder gave it right back with interest, just kick the feet up boys

Hendricks has been lights out when caught by Amaya (2.53 ERA) and then as soon as David inexplicably decides to slide in Barnhart he gives up four runs. Coincidence???
