That and there wasn't a picture of Wednesday's Billy Goat. Some days the photo gallery can be fickle.

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 - Jorge Soler (.087). The Cubs only had four hits on the night; Soler had two of them.
- Hero - Tommy La Stella (.076). Did his job with a pinch-hit single in the eighth.
- Sidekick - Zac Rosscup (.040). Thankfully put out the fire from the parade of walks that was Justin Grimm.
THE THREE GOATS: For the ninth time this season, there's a bump on the Goat podium for the hitting of Kyle Hendricks whose -.074 hitting is moved out. He's second on the team for number of bumps caused behind only Jake Arrieta at 11.
- Billy Goat - Chris Coghlan (-.138). Didn't do his job with a pinch-hit double play in the eighth.
- Goat - Dexter Fowler (-.090). This is the first time in a while that I can recall four different hitters in the order go 0-for-4 with nobody on base. Fowler ends up winning just based on being the leadoff hitter.
- Kid - Kyle Schwarber (-.071). If I could give him a pass for his great catch in the seventh inning, I would.
