[Outshined_One]

any suggestions?

 

LeBron James is about to be free for the rest of the summer. Maybe we should try him out?

[Keener98]

Anybody going to the game Saturday? I just got tickets given to me woo

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson flied out to center field

[laurens]

CUBS are 14-10 when they get a quality start.... 8-12 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

And what are those stats without relief appearances by Neal Cotts?

[coldsteel]

The Pirates' using their forfeit lineup vs. the $130M Cubs ace at home has kept this game quite competitive, fortunately.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soto grounded out to third, 5-3

[CubColtPacer]

Z looks to be going out there for the 7th as nobody is warming up.

Fontenot singled to right field

If Blanco can get on base, we can see some Jake Fox action. Pretty big if though.

Z is one of the guys I don't mind going a lot of pitches. As long as he doesn't suck.

The forfeit lineup hasn't done a thing, it's the quality pitcher they are throwing that's kept it close.

How many pitces has he thrown anyway? Id very much like to see a reliever.

[jersey cubs fan]
