It doesn’t make me feel much better. It devalues the NL Central more than it uplifts the Cubs choke-job last year.

That series was proof there is a God and He has a sense of humor.

Every player should be accorded the privilege of at least one season with the Chicago Cubs. That's baseball as it should be played - in God's own sunshine. And that's really living. ~Alvin Dark

It was strange seeing something like that happening to someone else

seems like if you replace Holliday with soriano and 2009 Cardinals with 2008 Cubs it would have just added to the stories.

If the Cubs are in a similar 9th inning situation in the playoffs next year,

let’s hope Sam Fuld is in left for defensive purposes.

Indeed

I think Sam knows better than to try to catch a ball with his balls.

Better than a "fractured testicle "

Nastiest sounding baseball injury. This maybe one time you boys should be grateful MLB pulled the video link.

Mixed feelings on this one

I understand the hatred of the Cards but having grown up mostly in L.A., my hatred of the Dodgers is greater. I sure hope the Dodgers lose the next series like they did last year.

The cartoon is very good though.
