The Cubs had two more at-bats with which to salvage Game 6, and failed to do so.

The Cubs were winning the game even after last night's incident, and could've gone on to escape the inning without damage and moved on to the World Series (with Prior and Wood both rested and ready).

But if the Cubs blow Game 7 -- and despite Wood being on the mound, despite the game being at Wrigley, despite Wood and Prior having lost back-to-back games only once all year, the Baseball Gods say that they will...

...then this guy:

had better go into the Witness Protection Program, have plastic surgery done, change his name, grow a beard, and move to Albania. Cubs fans have seen his face, will find out his name, and will remove his vital organs in alphabetical order if the Cubs choke this series away.

24 hours ago, everything was in alignment: the Red Sox had the pitching matchup they wanted (at home) and were ready to go up 3-2, and the Cubs were ready to close out the series at home with one of their aces on the mound. The Baseball Gods are cruel, cruel cocksuckers when they want to be, which is almost always.
