Sabathia is due to be lit up.

Sabathia retires the side in order, striking out 2, throwing 14 pitches total.

There is no way the nationals win this one. That lineup is pathetic.

Balester is a young pitcher with a strong upside. So I'm holding out hope hat he comes into his own tonight.

Any major league team can beat any other team. We just have to hope this is one of those unlucky nights for the brewers.

[E.J.]

Brewers already up 2-0 in the 2nd.

This is the most sure win in baseball history... the nationals might score in the negatives.

Don't worry we get to play the Sucktionals soon too.

And of course, they'll sweep us.

Cubs keep winning is all that matters. Make the Brewers have to keep up.

Payback for us sweeping them at Wrigley last year.

Congratulations to the Milwaukee Brewers on beating the Brooklyn Brawler of Major League Baseball teams.

In semi-related news, the Orioles recalled Rocky Ty Cherry today.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

We do not need to be concerned with what the Brewers do. As I recall, we spanked them in a 4 game sweep and served notice to them that the Cubs are the team to beat.

 

They need to worry about us, not the other way around. :thumbsup:

 

Of couse, you'd like a 10 game lead so you can coast. It's good if they lose but the Cubs just need to keep doing their thing and they'll win the division.

Maybe next time?

CG SO for Sabathia. Can any other team besides us beat him, or at least get him out of the game before it's over?
