But I'm keeping hope alive. They still got a chance; they're still looking good for the wild card.

And I'm still a Schwarber fan. I first saw him in 2015 when my mother and I went down to Cleveland when the Cubs were playing there. They brought him up to be the DH and I swear, he hit almost every ball thrown in his direction. I thought "who is this guy?" and he's been one of my favorites ever since. It was a dark day when the Cubs let him go.
