The running game

Counsell still hasn't gotten the memo that this is the new age of base stealing. The Brewers understand this and have made their team faster while Counsell has made the Cubs slower and won't even use the Cub's best base stealer near the top of the line up behind Hoerner.

Having speed on the bases puts intense pressure on opposing pitchers and their defenses.

Standing around waiting for the three run homer only works against teams that are also slow.

The Cubs need to be stealing a lot more bases and putting on a lot more hit and run plays.

And they need to bring up Pedro Ramirez as a base stealing DH.

Brewers fan

Got to go to Wrigley for the first time last night and had a great time. I loved how the stadium feels like part of the neighborhood and the atmosphere inside was awesome. Good food and cold beer, great place to watch a game.
I’d love to go back,
Thank you
