“I was sitting on the curveball a few times during Wainwright and I feel like they knew it, so I didn’t get that pitch,” Báez said, referring to Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright. “The guy (Reyes) who throws the hardest is different.”

If you didn’t love the Cubs’ 2-1 win over the Cardinals in 10 innings Sunday night, then you don’t love baseball, because this game had a little bit of everything, and I’d have felt the same way about it even if the Cubs had lost. Of course, I’m glad they won the game and series and in doing so, they definitely made a statement that they will continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the NL Central race this year.
