The New York Mets just held serve at the house and that's it as the Chicago Cubs do not need to read anything else into it.  Yes Amazins' starter Noah "Thor" Syndergaard was dealing with that three digits or high 90s express going in that cold weather. Yes they also beat the 2K15 NL Cy Young Winner in Jake Arrieta in game #2 as the Mets Daniel Snyder is the "Thing" in the Big Apple talking October Hardball.

"Thor" Syndergaard threw 101 pitches through 5 2/3 frames but it was that 1st frame versus Arrieta that got things going. A David Wright run scoring Double coupled with a Daniel Snyder two-run HR as Arrieta threw a "Get Me Over" Local and Snyder kept the Rawlings Stitched-One fair right inside the right field foul pole for a 3-0 Mets lead.

The Cubbies never recovered as Yoensi Cespedes added an RBI single in the 3rd making it 4-0 Amazins' as they go onto win 4-1. Now the Cubbies face the unenviable task of beating one Jacob deGrom on Tuesday Night at Wrigley with Kyle Hendricks going for the North Siders. Kris Bryant had the lone RBI for Chicago an RBI two-bagger...
