Cubs magic number down to 2
As a Cubs fan living in Philly, there's not much better than seeing both the Phillies and Cubs make the playoffs. It happened last year, although both teams were swept in the first round, and it's quite probable it will happen again. The Cubs are almost a shoo-in, having won their 92nd game yesterday after the Brewers blew a 6-2 lead. I followed the game (albeit not very closely) on the internet and was happily surprised to see the Cubbies score 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th to tie and then go on to win in the 12th. Apparently Derrek Lee had the game-winning hit.
As for the Phillies - well, they won too, but so did the Mets, which means their lead remains at half a game. Of course, the Phils could still win the wild card even if they end up behind the Mets, but that depends on how badly the Brewers choke. I am not a Mets fan, so I'm definitely pulling for the Phils to win their division.
