normally, you say the road team's goal in the first couple of games of a playoff is to split.  With Scherzer going Monday and Stras available for game 5, I'll say the Cubs need this one as much as we do.  I think we'll hit Hendricks better if we get a 2d chance.  Could have grabbed a lead early on some rockets like Murphy's smash to Rizzo, and that changes everything.  Win today, and I like our chances again.

First time in my life I'll root against Jon Lester.  Still have his tee shirt and autographed baseball, but its time for him to be mortal.
