Magic number?

Yes, believe it or not, after the Cubs beat the Padres 9-6 last night for their ninth consecutive win, the "magic number" reared its ugly head on ESPN. I think it might be the earliest I've ever heard that phrase in my life.

I also think they might be getting ahead of themselves -- just a bit -- even though the Cubs do have the best record in baseball.

Oh, for those who were wondering, the "magic number" to clinch a playoff berth is 101.
