08/07 Cincinnati (Arroyo) @ CUBS (Wells) 1:20 CDT, CSN TV

[Old Style]

Sure would be nice if I could watch this game.

[Schwarber Fan]

it's like the good old 2011 Cubs (giving up RBIs and HRs to no name scrubs) battling against the 7-game win streak swagger Cubs.

[UMFan83]

Can stop did stop

[CubmanPi]

God Dammit Marshall.

[BCVM22]

If the home plate ump is visibly of deteriorating physical condition due to the heat, shouldn't it be required that he leave the game? How is anyone involved supposed to have full confidence in his ability to call balls and strikes, a confidence that is limited even without the weather?

[Schwarber Fan]

I guess we're going to find out exactly how magical this streak is...

The third base umpire, Kerwin Danley, has left the field, presumably to don his home plate gear, in order to relieve Nauert.

 

edit: It was crew chief Dana Demuth, not Danley that replaced Nauert.

When did this happen in relation to the six consecutive Ks? And is he going to give it a rest in the bottom of the 9th?

DeMuth took over at the start of the bottom of the 8th.

Back to lukewarm indifference.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Well, that kind of sucked.

[Bull]

streak was nice. one good moment in a pathetic season. Now back to watching the fecal league standings.

[Fanatic3332000]

...and then there were 0 pitchers with an ERA below 3.00 on the active roster.

[Sammy Sofa]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo....

 

Time for a new winning streak. I'll kill anyone who isn't with me.
