Oh thank Jesus.

[Guest]

Woot.

[Andy]

I don't understand why people are so worked up over playing for one run in the 8th inning.

Our back end of the lineup needs every out it can get, and our bullpen has been [expletive].

 

Thank you Hairston.

[Sammy Sofa]

[expletive] YOU, WIND. IN YOUR WINDY FACE.

[dfnowak]

That is one straight billed hat

[DiamondMind]

both runners moved up, good time to take a big lead here

Don't do this to me Cubs.

 

Please score more runs. Don't make me cry after you blow a one-run lead in the ninth.

 

SCORE MORE

[bcl412]

Another hit would be nice.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I won't lie.

 

I want the Cubs to score here so bad. Score a lot here. So many runs that we end up winning the game and I can feel good about baseball and life for even just a few fleeting moments.

 

Please, Cubs, please just give me that.

 

We're just one stupid little winning streak away from .500. I don't want to have to give up yet.

Bill 'Rock' Schroeder from the Brewers broadcast team rivals Hawk Harrelson in homerism. Man is he a [expletive] blast to listen to when bad things happen to the Brewers.

I prefer the three chances to score as opposed to two myself.

 

It's not quite that simple, since a fly ball or ground ball don't score a run in the three chances scenario.

 

I doubt that bunting there is much worse, if at all, than swinging away in terms of expectancy.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I believe David is the perfect guy in this situation.

 

Gap it for a double.

Insurance runs! Nice knock David.

[KaiserCesar]

Nobody mess with Dejesus!

[Sosa21MVP]

Breathing room!

[Sammy Sofa]

Holla.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Yeesssss.

It's not, just with this struggling offense, my personal preference is the no outs.

 

DEJESUS!

[witty alias]

Fangraphs has the bunt adding .1% win expectancy.

 

At least they are pinch hitting for Lillibridge.

 

Where do you find things like that on fangraphs?
