Can't we all just get along?

Thursday, May 31

Fitting that this installment of Cubs vs. Pirates ended with a bench-clearing stand around (because, MLB). And that an umpire review ended with whatever was being reviewed dubbed unreviewable (because, MLB). Re: the stand around: "Sometimes players are just talking," Javier Baez said after the Pirates' Joe Musgrove slid hard into second base, causing everyone to come out and say hello. Re: the non-review review: Fix this now, writes Steve Rosenbloom. And re: the actual game: Cubs lost 2-1. Tonight: Q starts vs. the Mets (6:10 p.m., NBCSCH).

Chicago tough

Yu Darvish: Usually good at pitching. So, what's up? If Darvish wanted to pitch unnoticed, he signed with the wrong Chicago team. Cubs bullpen update: Carl Edwards Jr. to the DL, so more shots for Justin Wilson.

Go with the 'flow'

Michael Kopech wears a watch that just says "NOW." He read a book about placebo power when he had a broken hand. The Sox pitching stud/hair model knows for him, it's mental > physical when making the leap to the bigs.

But, it's so hot

Bears practiced in the hotness yesterday ... and Vic Fangio wore a sweatsuit (omg it's so hot out there). Oh right, football news: Allen Robinson did drills and Jordan Howard is doing Jordan Howard things again.

Let's play

Tonight: Cavaliers vs. Warriors in the Finals for a 4th straight year (8 p.m., ABC). It's the NBA's version of "Fast and Furious" — and those movies rule. Here's why LeBron & Co. will win. And here's why Steph & Co. will win.

Back for more

Northwestern will play football at Wrigley in 2020. And this time with 2 end zones! As you'll recall in 2010, NU and Illinois both played to the west end zone because of safety concerns near the right-field wall. Sure sure.
