8/22 Nationals (Lannan) @ Cubs (Marquis) - 1:20 WGN

[ConstableRabbit]

WTF

[weatherdood]

The one guy who's been hitting gets a hit and runs into a silly out.

[CubsBears29]

That will define this loss.

 

Thx for the topper, DeRo!

[big_shooter17]

We still have 4 inning left, and at least Lou may have finally realised that he cant win with Marquis in the roation.

 

As little faith as Lou has in Marquis, he has given him far too many chances for me to think that this is the start that'll push him over the edge.

[Guest]

Was he trying to stretch it out when he shouldn't or what happened?

[Little Slide Rooter]

sure looks like we'll be losing a game on the Brewers today.

[bcruise]

That will define this loss.

 

Thx for the topper, DeRo!

I'm pretty sure the grand slam will define this one (if they lose).

Pretty much. He was running the whole way.

[CubsBears29]

Howry in.

 

The chances of only losing 6-4 today just went out the window.

Enter Bob Howry. Wonderful

[BigSlick]

I think it was a combination of bad luck with a great bounce to Harris and a great throw, and him not really rushing out of the box

[David]

Why is Howry pitching in a winnable game?

[TruffleShuffle]

contract the cubs

[bcl412]

I hate this franchise. I really do.

[weatherdood]

Why is Howry pitching in a winnable game?

 

Because the game is no longer winnable

[UMFan83]

And now Bobby Howry in to end any suspense.

 

Why would you bring him in with the wind blowing out?

[CubsBears29]

That will define this loss.

I was being facetious, but I'm sure you already realized that.

[big_shooter17]

Why is Howry pitching in a winnable game?

 

One could say that about Marquis, the point at which he had originally been listed as the probable starter for this afternoon's game.

[Hall7810]

Because the game is no longer winnable

 

Yeah, ok.

[David]

Nationals are getting so lucky right now.

[BCVM22]

Just when I think this team is past the point of letting the doormats be the ones to walk all over them, they start playing like this. I want to hit something so badly.

[PrimeTime]

I HATE YOU BOB HOWRY

[17 Seconds]

This is pathetic. Now we have to win 2 straight just to avoid a .500 homestand against the Red and Nationals.

[weatherdood]

Awesome job you worthless piece of crap Howry.
