Subject: Cubs @ Red Sox

The Cubs tighten up the A.L. race with another typically luckless performance.  We played on even terms against a far superior team (hits: BOA - 31, CHN - 30) but not in runs or wins (BOA - 3, CHN - 0)....
 
 
Game 1: A critical 2-run blown x here, a surgical walk and precision split card homer there, and suddenly the game appears to be one-sided even though it wasn't.  Final score: 6-3.  CHN starter Ted Gray allowed just 2 runs but reliever Gene Bearden was dismembered.  The Boston shutout wasn't broken until the game was well out of reach in the 9th.
 
=======================================
 
Game 2: We had the upper hand in hits and total bases -- and plated one lousy run.  The Cubbie opponent (as always) came up with something unknown to us that they call "clutch hits" and prevailed by the count of 4-1.  Dutch Leonard's decent start was wasted, and the bullpen (as always) aided our opponent with some timely arson, even though it wasn't necessary.
 
=======================================
 
Game 3: The Cubs struck early and often against the Boston starter, building a 5-1 lead in the 4th though failing on numerous opportunities to widen the lead.  Then HAL remembered: these are the Cubs!  Ellis Kinder is pitching!  Suddenly but unsurprisingly the rolls and splits got VERY ugly.  Final score: 10-6.  Kinder was yanked before it got out of hand, but the bullpen was more than able to finish the task.
 
Slugging CHN first sacker Herman Reich entered the contest with a whopping zero home runs in 314 AB, hit two today and came close to a third.
 
With our dismal performance in this series (and 8 more just like it to come) the Cubs are well on our way to locking up the #1 draft lottery seed!  Masters of perfect timing that we are, the 1948 draft has to be the weakest at the top in the history of the league.
