Yesterday's game I feel is a perfect example of the Cubs team this year. No matter what inning it is, the Cubs are not out of it. The Cubs have proved time and time again that you can never count them out.
Examples of the never say die Cubs:
April 23 - Ryan Theriot's two-out, RBI single in the 10th inning.
May 28 - Soto ties it in the 9th, Soriano wins it in the 10th.
May 30 - DeRosa caps improbable 8 run comeback against Rockies.
August 8 - Blanco comes through in the 11th.
August 15 - Ward's pitch-hit blast wins it for the Cubs.
September 18 - Soto's 3-run 9th inning blast sends game into extras, Lee ends it in the 12th.
When the pitching isn't perfect and there is a minor let down by the bullpen the Cubs offense seems to find a way to keep the Cubs in most ballgames.

I really enjoyed this post because this year has amazed me. Every other year the when the Cubs got down I knew it was over. This year they have continually came back and have had a ton of exciting games that any other year they never would have won. Not sure what it is but this year they are a team that you can never count out no matter the score or inning.
