“Nobody walks up the stairway from hell just to walk back down.” – James Blunt and Ward Thomas, Halfway
The Cubs split the London series with the Cardinals, though both games were enjoyable to watch. It seemed like there were more American tourists at the games than locals, but credit MLB for expanding its market.
That said, I do believe the Cubs are about to explode as the season tilts toward its second half. In fact, I expect Jed Hoyer to be looking for players at the deadline rather than shipping bodies out.
