DANSBY SWANSON took a jab at himself for his error, which led to a run, but he got it back with a HR: "The old saying, you gotta drive in more than you let in. Still working on that after throwing that one to our dugout. But just happy to be out there and help the team." #Cubs

Craig Counsell, on JUSTIN STEELE, who had a good outing Friday: "It was certainly encouraging. He flew to Chicago; we’ll see him Tuesday. We’ve got some discussions to have. We’ll see what we think going into the last week. There’s a lot of things that factor into it." #Cubs

Just drove through Clinton, Iowa, and stopped at @Culvers. After Lara finished taking my order, she looked at my sweatshirt and said, “I’m old enough to know who Walter Payton was.” I told her, “That’s my dad.” She freaked out! Then 17-year-old Ze lost it, too. He told me WP was his favorite football player. Before our food even came out, I took pictures with everyone. What a special, unexpected moment. Thank you, Lara & the entire team for making my day. 🙏🏽 @WalterPayton, you have no idea the impact you left down here. Your legacy continues to touch people in places you never imagined. 🙏🏽 🐻⬇️ #Bears

Last year at this time, #Reds swept #Cubs in a 4-game series on the way to a WC spot. This year, they're trying to play spoiler. "I’m jealous," TERRY FRANCONA said. "Last night, we were looking at the scoreboard, like [bleep] man, that feeling of anxiety, I kind of miss that."
