New York City - Wrigley Giveaway: "So fragile are the Cubs that they allowed a fan reaching for a pop foul with one out and one runner on in the eighth inning to undermine a 3-0 lead over the Marlins in Game 6 last night.

Five outs from their first World Series appearance since 1945, coasting behind a poised pitcher who hadn't lost in five weeks, they suffered a physical and mental breakdown. With the help of another error, this one by a shortstop employed by the Cubs, Florida scored eight runs in the inning - only three earned - to post a stunning 8-3 victory and raise fears all too familiar in this city."

Can we say CURSE!
