If you're not in the mood to peruse "anticlimactic" games in a "funereal baseball atmosphere", why not listen to Game 3 of the Southern League Championship between the Jacksonville Suns and the Tennesee Smokies?
Or, for those holding on to faint glimmers of hope, it's tonight's game between the Cubs and Marlins.
The Cubs are 8-15 in first games of road series this year, but they've won 3 of their last 4. After Pinella left the team the Cubs have a record of "14-7 and 9-3 on the road" and are 5-1 on this road trip. Last year in Miami Gardens they won 3 out of 4 games. Former Fish Ryan Dempster starts tonight after making some history of his own, in his last start becoming the 4th Canadian to have achieved 100 MLB wins.
Starting for the Marlins will be the returning fighter Alex Sanabia.
MORE-PILING-ON: Hanley's left elbow's been sore for 10 days - he's out of the line-up. And Buente's shoulder's sore too. (sun-sentinel)

MINORS-GET-IT-DONE: The Suns beat the Cubs-affiliate Tennessee Smokies 2-0, but the Cubs get past the Marlins 2-0.
