Welcome back in to Rahimi Harris and Grody on the score.

We started the program today talking about the impossible Cubs who begin today completely out of the playoff picture in any way, shape or form.

We also talked about the incomparable Cubs.

Stacey King, who we lost yesterday at the age of 59.

As a matter of fact, we had the pleasure of talking to Mark Shanowski about Stacey King at 11 o'clock, and we just talked about the Chicago White Sox and the gauntlet of a schedule that they are on after having lost two out of three to the mighty Phillies in Philadelphia.

There's no baseball tonight.

It's a night off, everybody.

1992.

Yeah, it all sets up for them to lose, doesn't it?

It's like ring night.

With teams that come back, that sort of build-up and the excitement, and then they'll probably lose this game.
