Here's the Cubs unofficial blog. And here is the Dbacks. The DBacks blog makes great use of graphs from FanGraphs.com - check out a running account of win probability in graph and play log form.

(Win probability is a way of weighing the impact of a particular player's performance - someone has charted how often teams win when they're up 2 with a runner on 1st in the bot. of the 4th, etc. So each team starts at 50/50 (more or less, there should be an ad for the home team) and the game progresses. Cool way to think about the game)>
