Here we are in the middle of August, nearing the end of the regular baseball season, and Chicago’s teams each just wrapped up an exciting series. The Cubs were spectacular, sweeping the defending World Series champs the San Francisco Giants in four games. On the flip side, the Sox were the ones who got swept. They fell three games in a row to the Kansas City Royals, last season’s runner-up. So, what does this mean for the postseason for our two home teams? WBEZ’s Cheryl Raye Stout talks baseball, plus an update on the Patrick Kane situation, and the latest from Bears training camp. (Flickr/Ron Cogswell)
