Kodai Senga's kids can't watch him much on television because of Shohei Ohtani 😅

"I think if I was Ohtani, there would be 3 times more media than we had today. I think he's that great of a player and he deserves the attention he gets. So props to him on that" pic.twitter.com/bTBVb7qtlb

1965: In New York‚ the Cubs score 6 runs in the 9th inning to whip the Mets‚ 14 - 10. Chris Krug is not much help in the 9th‚ as the Cubbie strikes out twice. It's the first time since 1922 a Cub has K'ed twice in one inning.

Keith Moreland leads the way with 3 hits and 4 RBIs. Hubie Brooks is 4 for 4 with 4 runs for New York. Davey Johnson gets tossed in the 7th after Bob Dernier gets hit by a pitch‚ a continuation of yesterday's beanballing.
