The Goat and the Bambino seen tonight
The Red Sox continued to see the curse and the cubs were still haunted by the billy goat today. The Yankees put away another game this afternoon - and there were plenty of oddball infield hits and errors in this one. Meanwhile, the Cubs had a breakdown worthy of the '86 Sox. With one out, a fan grabbed a ball that would have been an easy catch (and out 2). Right after that, an error at short extended the inning. The Marlins managed to score 8 runs, in what had been looking like a cruise towards the Cubs first series since 1945. Looks like the fans who wanted a Cubs/Sox series are going to have to wait - looks to me like the Yankees will get there from the American league, and the NL side is completely in flux.
