Probably just one more inning for Harden... hopefully our pen is sharp today.

 

Shark probably follow Harden, then Marmol to Wood.

Harden kinda sucks at the plate.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Sabathia got a gift call on that strike out of LaRoche.

 

I've actually been more interested in the Pirates/Brewers than I am the Cubs/Nats. There is something about the Nationals that sucks all the energy and excitement out of baseball.

[UMFan83]

2 hits in 5 innings for the Cubs, come on guys.

I dont care if he goes to the plate without a bat if he keeps pitching like this the rest of the season, and into the playoffs

Bergmann struck out swinging

[UMFan83]

Hopefully the Pirates have a mildly patient inning and get CC over 100 pitches through 6. He has 85 through 5.

 

How many pitches can they conceivably let him throw? 130?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Harris flied out to center field

One can only hope.

91 pitches through 6. I think if the Cubs don't score this inning he'll pitch the 7th. If they do they will put in Shark

Because of the call on Laroche?

For what?
