7/2 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Mets (DeGrom) 12:10, WGN

[Guest]

Crap like that doesn't happen if you don't fall behind the pitcher 2-0.

 

or if you just catch playable fly balls

[ARCubsFan]

Should have pitched around Granderson there

[Schwarber Fan]

Again, that run only happens because Arrieta throws 2 balls to deGrom. Cubs pitchers have been doing that all year

you know what's a lot easier than not throwing 2 straight balls now and then?

I agree that it should've been caught but we still shouldn't be giving up 380 foot fly balls to pitchers.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Now the CUBS will have to borrow against tomorrow's run production to get enough runs to win today. [sigh]

if he had just grooved him a pitch on the first pitch to make absolutely sure he didn't fall behind 2-0, he wouldn't have given up the deep fly ball that he gave up because he was behind 2-0 and had to groove him a pitch

 

that about right?

[UMFan83]

Literally the first run the Cubs have allowed since Sunday and Rondon Fan is throwing a fit about it.

[DiamondMind]

Regardless of that Granderson AB, Arrieta has filthy stuff today

[jersey cubs fan]

mets announcers are very upset with them for being too conservative with Conforto

[DiamondMind]

mets announcers are just very upset period

[DiamondMind]

Addy is a vacuum cleaner

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 9-7 (.563) when they hit an opposing batter.... 32-28 (.533) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS seeing 4.06 P/PA so far.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[OleMissCub]

Off the bat that Russell flyout looked like a homer.

[PackLandVA]

Cubs haven't scored many runs the past 9 games, but they are going against some pretty great pitching staffs. Dodgers, Cards and Mets are 3 of the top 4 in ERA. Bats should heat up soon.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 21-11 (.656) when the opponent commits at least 1 error.... 20-24 (.455) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[DiamondMind]

So meatballish, but Castro's been busting his ass down the line lately

[Ski]

Good hustle by Castro to force that bad throw.

[tfarks]

It just looks that way because he's usually walking to 1st

[Ski]

Geez, take a pitch, would you, Rizzo?

[Fred Hornkohl]

shoulda, coulda, woulda

[PrimeTime]

Rizzo!! Runs!!!
