Hello sport's fans! I am back, bringing you all the action from Wrigley Field in the Windy City. The New York Mets square off against the Chicago Cubs in game 3 of the NLCS. The New York Metropolitans are trying to take a commanding 3 games to 0 lead in the series, while Chicago tries to bring some magic to their home ballpark. The Cubs will look to keep their unbeaten post season home streak alive and cooking, but they are up against one of the best pitchers in baseball...and the hottest team in professional sports. Jacob deGrom will pitch against Kyle Hendricks in one of the most pivotal games in Chicago Cubs' history. As we all know, the Cubs haven't made it to the World Series since 1945. And the Mets will hope to keep it that way. It will be a fun game to watch, lots of heart, hard hitting and phenomenal pitching by both teams. One of the Mets' most clutch post season performers this season is of course Daniel Murphy. With a .357 batting average, 5 homers and 8 RBIs in 7 games, Murph has put the city of New York on his back. His home runs haven't come off just any old pitchers...he has big jacks off of two Cy Young award winners in Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw, and a 20+ win pitcher in Jake Arietta...and he did it all in the same week. Hopefully the Mets can keep riding Murphs hot bat all the way to the Promise Land. Let's Go Mets! Enjoy the game tonight, you can find it on TBS at 8:07pm sharp.
really great post Tom!
