Wow. Id say this division is in good shape.
And for the betting types. I'm heading to wrigley Wednesday. Do NOT bet on the Cubs.
quote:Good for the DJ.
The Cubs fired the Wrigley Field DJ who played an inappropriate song after Aroldis Chapman's appearance during Sunday night's game.
The '90s song, "Smack My B---- Up" by the English band the Prodigy, came on the PA system after Chapman left the mound in the top of the ninth inning.
Chapman served a 30-game suspension with the Yankees this year after an alleged domestic-violence incident in which Chapman was accused of choking his girlfriend and firing eight bullets in his garage. Chapman was not arrested and no charges were filed.
Cubs President Crane Kenney apologized Monday in a statement for the "irresponsible music selection" during the game against the Cardinals.
