Cubs 6, Cardinals 5: A Happ-ening!

I was preparing myself to write yet another morose Cubs game recap in which I decried the team’s bullpen, which has blown more leads than any team in baseball this year (46, if you’re counting, which maybe you shouldn’t be).

Then, with just one out to go to defeat, Ian Happ put the Cubs ahead.

Usually I go in chronological order in recaps, but Happ’s homer is worth looking at first [VIDEO].

That ball was absolutely demolished!
