The Cubs spent six months working and hitting and pitching and fielding and sweating to get home-field advantage in the playoffs, and they gave it away in five innings. They might've given this series away, too, because losing the first game at home in a five-game series is exponentially more disastrous than doing it in a seven-game series." [ RosenBlog]
