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 Ramirez Catalyst of Game 94: With the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the first, Addison Russell starts the Cubs' scoring with a two-run double to left on a 2-2 pitch. WPA impact: +.177.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Kyle Hendricks (.235). In the month of July he's given up exactly one run, and that one wasn't even earned.
- Hero - Addison Russell (.199). It was the sixth three-hit game of his major-league career and the first game ever in the big leagues in which he went 3-for-3 at the plate.
- Sidekick - Anthony Rizzo (.100). Meanwhile, he was just busy hitting bombs out to right-center.
THE THREE GOATS: Third place gets a bump as Hendricks' -.026 hitting is moved out. It's the third straight start for Hendricks in which his hitting has caused a bump on the Goat podium.
- Billy Goat - Miguel Montero (-.063). Came close to a hit in the bottom of the first with a hard liner, but the BABIP gods got him as he hit it right at Michael Conforto.
- Goat - Ben Zobrist (-.057). Also had a chance with on a shot up the middle but it got snagged up by a shifting Jose Reyes.
- Kid - Travis Wood (-.004). It's hard to call it a tough-luck podium spot in this case, because even though it was a WPA just above zero, he did give up the only two runs that the Mets scored. Maybe it's karma at work once again.
RANKINGS THROUGH GAME 94: Hendricks breaks the tie for fourth place as the rotation solidifies the second through fifth spots on the chart behind Rizzo.
