And there's the first pitch of the season!

-Oh? -I'm not gonna be back next season. -What?

I think this is gonna be THE season for the Cubs.

(echoing) Henry Rowengartner! The entire season is resting on Rowengartner's shoulders!

The diamond, the decorations, and the dread of yet another losing season.

You think this is gonna be the season? Why would you think that?

You'll let me finish the season before you take my job, won't you?

And with that, Rowengartner extends the Cubs to their longest winning streak this season - two.

-What a team. -Poor Mr. Carson. His last season as team owner. He must be really depressed.

So, you're gonna sit out the rest of the season on the bench, and then we're releasing you.

The Cubbies are one inning away from the division championship, completing the most improbable season in baseball history!

Uh, if we don't sell out every game for the rest of the season, we are going to, uh, have to forfeit the franchise.

Rowengartner throws a homer, hits a man, throws a wild pitch, and still manage to get the save, and the Chicago Cubs beat the New York Mets 5 to 4.
