I think I’ve just gotta be done thinking about/worrying about/whatevering about the Brewers. They are what they are at this point, and they are just not going to lose. It is to the point where, even as the Mets take a 5-0 lead on the Brewers, you don’t even have to check what happened thereafter to know that the Brewers still wound up winning in some thrilling way (they did).
The division is just about cooked for the Cubs. I’d rather not keep stressing about it, and, hey, if things look shockingly different come mid-September, maybe I change my tune. Right now, I just have to stop obsessing about the universe’s favorite team.
Besides, the Cubs are giving me plenty to worry about lately …
Last night’s Cubs loss came down to QUITE a bit more than the call at second base in the 9th, but because of the hits that followed, it’s sticking in most of our minds. If pinch runner Jon Berti had been called safe, the Cubs tie that game. I’ve watched the replay 50 times, and I see a justification for “out” more often than not, but it’s close enough that I wonder if the on-field call would’ve stood no matter what:Jon Berti was ruled out after the Cubs challenged the call on the field.Nico Hoerner singled on the following pitch.(via ESPN) pic.twitter.com/WbiPpLunGF
— Marquee Sports Network (@WatchMarquee) August 11, 2025 It’s clear that Jon Berti beat the throw to the base. What’s also seemingly clear is that his oven mitt popped off the base at some point, and the glove was likely still touching his arm at that time. I hate when replays shift on the bases of the micro-pop-off-the-bag stuff, but this technically isn’t a case of that, since Berti was called out on the field. I can see why the call stood. Craig Counsell said he thought it was going to be a call-stands situation, too, whatever the call had been on the field:"We didn't create enough scoring opportunities tonight."Craig Counsell on the Cubs' lack of run support. pic.twitter.com/IgqeipgD4B

— Talkin’ Baseball (@TalkinBaseball_) August 11, 2025 At least it was a little slice of history for PCA:Pete Crow-Armstrong is the first Cubs player with 30+ SB in a season at age 23 or younger since Ryne Sandberg in 1983
— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) August 11, 2025 At least it was a strong night for Shōta Imanaga, who struck out nine Cardinals (and at one point threw sixteen straight(!) first-pitch strikes): © Jeff Curry-Imagn Images Number 51 retired by the Mariners:MORE CUBS FROM BLEACHER NATION: Go Ad Free | Subscribe to the BN Newsletter
