Wrigley Field yesterday with a 5-4 win over the Brewers in a game that was about as far off-script as one could possibly imagine. 

Kyle Hendricks outpitched Corbin Burnes, Ian Happ is off to a torrid start, Seiya Suzuki got his first big league hit, and Nico Hoerner hit Chicago’s first home run of the season.

Baseball’s back, baby, and the Cubs beat a division rival behind a pitcher who made the Brewers look like everyone has expected their hitters to look for years now.

As long as everyone means Cubs fans. All is well at Clark & Addison, enjoy your post-Opening Day hangover, please and thank you.

The Brewers were 15-4 against Chicago’s North Side baseballers last season, but the Cubs have the upper hand for now.
