Not to jinx anything before the series is over, but I wouldn’t be much of an Astros fan living in the Southside of Chicago if I didn’t take a moment to enjoy the suffering and humiliation of the Cubs at the hands of the Diamondbacks thus far.  In Game 3, Arizona leads the Cubs 3-0 in the 4th, and it’s a best-of-five series.  It’s never over till it’s over, but it appears that the Cubs will not be advancing.  This is a very good thing. 

Update: It’s bottom of the seventh, and the Diamondbacks lead 4-1. Now bottom of the ninth, Arizona leading 5-1.  I think we can look forward to an all-Southwest NL Championship.  Rockies win in 5.
