Here's to Harden going 0-5 today (unless he lays down a few sacrifices)
that will mean the bats are alive.

5 plate appearances by your starting pitcher
is NEVER a bad thing.

Remember Harden's first AB with the Cubs?
they told him to bunt and he kept looking in the dugout as if to say, “OOOOKayyyyy…. you really want me to try this?!” It was funny,

and...
Buhl failed to record a single hit in 70 at-bats in 1962, the worst single-season batting performance in major league history — specifically, the record for most at-bats in a hitless season. (Sporting News Baseball Record Book, 2007, p.19)

Suds blew a bases-loaded, 0 out threat
with Braun whiffing, and Fat bouncing into a 6-4-3.
No score, with Charlie Cheeseburger pitching.

you know what would be a great Acu-View givaway?
contact lenses with cubs logos on them. You wouldn’t see it when wearing them, because they’d be too close, but everyone looking at you would see CUBS!
