One of my favorite things about September baseball are the lineups in games after a team clinches the division. It’s especially good if the clinch happened late at night and the next game is a day game. That’s what happened with the Cubs last night, as they did not actually clinch until the Giants-Cardinals game had ended in San Francisco. They play the Brewers this afternoon. Which leads to this:
John Lackey takes the mound today for the NL Central champs.
