Watch Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber perform in high school show choir
DeGrom had a great series against the Dodgers and he could be key in the NLCS for New York.
When Randazzo visits Wrigley Field for Game 3 Tuesday it will be his first Cubs playoff game since he attended the famed “Bartman Game” as a 19-year-old fan in the 2003 NLCS. Curtis Granderson – who plays right field for the Mets – grew up in Lynwood and attended UIC, where he maintains strong connections. He spends a lot of time working with the University of Illinois Chicago, his alma mater. That being said, Lester and Arrieta have proven their ability to keep their team in games, but in the NLCS, it’s merely a must.
It’s the other New York team that’s still playing. Curtis Granderson lead the Mets with 11 steals, but he was thrown out seven times. “But I was saying, no, we’re not going to be slaves to history”.
– “The mentality is, ‘Oh, (bleep), we’ve got to do it again”, Mets manager Terry Collins said, drawing laughter. Now, W flags are often hoisted by fans at games or flown from homes after a Cubs win.

“I really don’t believe it does”, he said. He was bailed out by his offense in that game, but it’s not like he was completely terrible, either: Arrieta still managed to strike out 9 in the game, so his stuff was there. “Then you knew this was going the other way”. “I think we’ll be able to use that as a little medicine to find a few extra adrenaline”. The Mets won the series and advanced to their first National League Championship Series since 2006. “It’s kind of surreal right now because it’s been so long”.

“They’re an entirely different team”, he said. Meanwhile, deGrom went 0-2 with a 6.10 ERA against the Cubs. “I think it’s unbelievable”, Font said. An eagle-eyed Tribune Publishing employee, Tom Comings, spotted the ball, and the Chicago Cubs verified the ball’s authenticity through a watermark on the cover.

“It’s not a decision that we have to make immediately, but certainly he’s lined up for Game 1 and we’ll see how he comes out of that”, Alderson said. Lester was handed a loss in Game 1 of the NLDS against the St. Louis Cardinals while Matt Harvey and the Mets destroyed the Los Angeles Dodgers 13-7 in Game 3 of the NLDS.
