The Eugene Emeralds championship: Why you should care

Late last Tuesday night, after the Cubs defeated the Brewers in one of their most important games of the season, the Eugene Emeralds won their fifth game in a row, and that won them the Northwest League championship. This stretch was the first time they’d won three in a row all season. After it all, regardless how much or little you care about the Cubs pipeline, the Emeralds championship is a good thing for Cubs fans.

Imagine you have a precocious niece. She’s about three or four, loves selfies, is a bit of a drama queen, and the other stuff.
