But before we reflect on what went down in last night’s thriller, let’s look back on the past three games. First off, both Addison Russell and Kris Bryant have been excellent for the Cubs in the batter’s box.
Dating back to last Friday, Joe Maddon‘s shortstop has tallied five home runs with a handful of RBI. As for his third baseman, Bryant is making a strong case for N.L. MVP honors alongside his teammate. Since August 18th, Kris has launched seven homers, 16 RBI, and one double in 35 at-bats.
