When does a win not feel like a win? I’m sorry to go all Cesar Romero-as-the-Joker on you, but Holy Boy Wonder, yesterday’s 2-0 win over the Pirates felt like it was going to be a third walk-off loss when de facto closer Rowan Wick walked Adam Frazier to start the bottom of the 9th. The Cubs played pretty poorly in all aspects of the game yesterday and still managed to escape with a victory.
That’s where we are in Cubs fandom right now. We expect the absolute worst.
