The Cubs have a chance to complete a sweep of the Rockies on what will be their last home game of the regular season, so you know the Wrigley crowd is going to be lively this afternoon. A win could push them back into the second Wild Card spot since the Diamondbacks’ game was rained out in New York. The Pirates managed a wild comeback with 12 runs in innings 6-8 to beat the Reds, but the Brewers couldn’t take care of business against the Marlins.
That means the Fish are still a game back, with the Redlegs falling 2.
