8/9 Reds (Leake) @ Cubs (Volstad) 8:25 CSN

[CincyCubsFan]

Yup. I'm blacked out of Len and Bob here in Cincy.

[ctcf]

lol Volstad threw a quality start

[Schwarber Fan]

That was crushed

[Sosa21MVP]

Castro! Tie game!

[OleMissCub]

That's a BS error on Cozart.

 

And hopefully that gets Starlin back on track. That was major wood.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Rizzo's slide into home looked like it hurt.

[El Duderino]

I call that a great success.

[Sosa21MVP]

Time for the offense to wake up again.

[XZero771679666304]

Nice AB from Rizzo.

[Sosa21MVP]

Nice game for Rizzo! A single, a double and two walks!

[ctcf]

Rizzo is just showing off now.

[El Duderino]

That was destroyed, omg

[Schwarber Fan]

I like the Wrigley Cubs a lot

[Sosa21MVP]

Freaking bomb! :shock:

[tenritsu]

mfing Soriano. WOW

[El Duderino]

I feel like Marmol hasn't pitched in a week. Almost forgot he existed.

[Smack]

Great AB by Soriano he looked miserable up there in the rain but was patient and crushed his pitch.

[sneakypower]

wow, almost an unbelievable play by Castro

[haubrich91]

Good win. Volstad quietly putting up a couple solid starts back to back.

[Guest]

Good thing they postponed this game until a later date.

4 games over .500 at home yet they've only won 16 games on the road. I'm sure plenty of bad teams have had home winning records before (the Astros are only 6 under at home) but how can you be a good team in one building but suck in others. How does playing on the road effect you as a team that much?

Certainly encouraging. It would sure be nice to be able to count on him as a 5 starter next year. I just hope we don't have to count on him to be a 3 starter

This came up in another thread a few days ago but I think we've mostly played .500 teams or better on the road so far this year and the road schedule gets easier the rest of the year
