Inside Slant

Lester vs Braun

It's not just that Brewers sanctimonious Ryan Braun looked like a fool when throwing-challenged Jon Lester got him at third Thursday night, it's that Braun looked like an idiot while also playing dumb baseball. The Cubs have always depended on the stupidity of strangers.   The Cubs coasted to an 8-0 win in Milwaukee. And, off the field, Kris Bryant called his commercial stunt "one of the favorite things I've been able to do." Presumably winning the World Series is also right up there.

Raised expectations

The White Sox rebuild is entering a new phase where losing for a better draft pick isn't the strategy.  The team, Paul Sullivan writes, is asking fans to watch a game differently, taking satisfaction whenever they can  whether the team wins or loses. That was certainly the case Thursday night when the team blew a three-run lead in the ninth and lost to the Tigers.

Field with a view

Northwestern unveiled its new, state-of-the-art Ryan Fieldhouse athletics facility on Thursday. It features floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Lake Michigan.

Worth savoring

The Blackhawks game Friday against the Blues could be Patrick Sharp's last home game with the franchise, and he is savoring the moments.

Old is new

Illinois' new football uniforms feature a simple design reminiscent of the Dick Butkus era in the 1960s.

Bulls host Celtics

Chicago Bulls take to the road to play the Celtics on Friday night in Boston.
