And today we present the "erratic heartbeat" chart, which is probably what most Cubs fans were feeling as they were watching this game unfold.

Writer's Note: The daily selections of the three Heroes and three Goats are based solely on the top three and bottom three WPA scores for the game. The selections are not based on my subjective opinion.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Jason Hammel (.411). His second-best start of the season by game score standards, coming just two points short of his eight-inning gem against Pittsburgh on April 27.
- Hero - Chris Denorfia (.142). Sent the crowd home happy with the sac fly and got a little Superman treatment from Anthony Rizzo in the postgame celebration.
- Sidekick - Dexter Fowler (.129). Some nights, all you need is a little patience.
THE THREE GOATS:
- Billy Goat - Addison Russell (-.194). The forceout in the tenth sealed the top spot, but it was a good fight against a tough opponent in Kenley Jansen.
- Goat - Starlin Castro (-.181). Three chances on the night with runners on and came up empty.
- Kid - Kris Bryant (-.092). Also had a couple of chances with runners on and couldn't capitalize.
Hammel moves back into fifth place overall on the plus/minus chart, while Castro joins Jorge Soler in the basement.
