Don't really think it's ironic.

This team is better than what they’ve shown the past few games. Every body goes through slumps in a season, and we just had a bunch of them happen all at once. Having the All-Star Break right there probably drew more attention to it.

Good job tonight. The offense finally awakened. Good to see Lee, Ramirez and Soto get hits.

Always nice to win on getaway day. Now, time to put together a nice homestand, short as it is.

I’m not going to bitch about Howry tonight. In a seven-run game, he has plenty of leeway. You throw strikes in that situation, odds are someone’s going to hit it.

Meanwhile, let’s all be happy with the victory. One more day in first place, and one more day off the calendar.

I just want to say that my mental health....

really depended on the Cubs winning tonight.

I don’t know how much more time I can spend in front of the computer, late on a work night, holding my radio at just the right angle, so I can hear WGN radio.

If someone told me they’d win every night I do that, I guess I’d just give up my career.
