pie (pee-yay) in the sky (skee-yay)

While we finished second (again) last night at our Quizzo pub night, the good news is that we got to watch the CUBS WIN during the heated match. The bad news is that it took 15 innings to do it. Following a 12 inning game/win - after blowing a 12 run lead - on Monday, last night's game was a nail biter fo sho. Sure, they held onto the lead to close and are up in wins (5-3), but it's too early in the season to be watching them claw their way through games like this. Oof.


The unfortunately named newcomer, Felix Pie, was the hero of the night! With a 2-run single in the 15th, he put us ahead for thankfully the final time, with Sean Marshall (in his first career save) closed out the inning. We went through seven pitchers last night. Seven. That's just brutal. Still, a brutal win is a win. Chalk it up!


The 100 years war continues....
