Happy Independence Day, folks.

Let's hope this time next year we all still our independence.

Congratulations to Sanchez for NL Pitcher of the Month.

Harper got Player of the Month, back to back.

Phillies jumping out in the 1st to a 1-0 lead.

Cubs' broadcast featured the starters with the lowest HR % with Sanchez at the top and I knew he was gonna give one up today. I even tried to knock on wood to unjinx him but it obviously didn't work.

Sánchez was due for a stinker. Cubs broadcast jinxed him with the home run statistic.

Offense will need to pick him up today.

That's a shame for Sanchez after POTM honors just before the ASG, just not his day today.

Dominguez is awful

You knew the jinx when you heard it, didn't you.

Yep, felt a sense of dread. It was bound to happen anyways, but still.
