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 113: The final play of the game. With the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the 11th, Anthony Rizzo lays off of a 3-1 pitch that catches the inside edge but is called a ball, giving him the walk-off walk and sending the Cubs to a 4-3 victory. WPA impact: +.345.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Anthony Rizzo (.427). When it comes to the Superhero award for Thursday night, I think there has to be some kind of a fruit basket that goes to home plate umpire Ron Kulpa. If the shoe was on the other foot, there would probably be a lot of Cub fans that would be up in arms.
- Hero - Mike Montgomery (.263). He got himself into a two-out bases-loaded mess in the 11th but then got himself right back out of it with a huge swinging strikeout by Matt Carpenter.
- Sidekick - David Ross (.217). Yet another sentence you figured you'd never read: Ross takes the final step on the hero podium thanks to a run-scoring bunt single. Yeah, it sounded a little weird to me too, but it grows on you.
THE THREE GOATS:
- Billy Goat - Jason Heyward (-.266). Oh, J-Hey... what's a fan to do. This time it was a 4-6-3 in the second and a popout with two on to end the 10th that spelled his demise.
- Goat - Ben Zobrist (-.161). He did walk twice, but it wasn't nearly enough to offset his two missed opportunities with runners in scoring position in the fourth and sixth innings.
- Kid - Travis Wood (-.159). Things could have been a lot worse for him if not for a great pickoff throw to first by David Ross (combined with a very awkward slide back into first by Jedd Gyorko).
RANKINGS THROUGH GAME 113: Rizzo reclaims his spot at the top of the chart as Jon Lester misses the podium on Thursday night and slides back into second place.
