Something called Adonis Garcia hit the walk off for the Braves.

[Schwarber Fan]

Tarp should be off any minute now.

[BigSlick]

Hahahahahahahah @ the Giants

[DiamondMind]

So after some quick research I am an idiot. Our bullpen is not bad. I don't know why I said that.

They've only ever been bad when used poorly. Now that that largely isn't the case anymore they've been very useful.

[Sammy Sofa]

Holy crap. What an amazingly bad send by the White Sox.

[DiamondMind]

I think seeing Soriano just jades my judgment.

Holy crap. What an amazingly bad send by the White Sox.

 

Beat me to it. That was awful.

[Schwarber Fan]

White Sox lmao

[BigSlick]

Hahah just watched the highlight of Beltre hitting for the cycle and teammates try to touch his head and he gets reeeeaaaaaal pissed

[ARCubsFan]

Really bad that the White Sox just sat with Shark

[Schwarber Fan]

Sportscenter comes on. Does that mean ESPN abandons the Cubs game?

No, they did this was one of the Cardinals games earlier this year

[Schwarber Fan]

Just a brutal break with the radar tonight. Just call it.

[ARCubsFan]

Yeah there's rain coming in, it looks clear after this small cell though. Best case looks like maybe an hour more.

[DiamondMind]

No clue when they'd make this up if they call it, don't we already have a makeup with Cleveland?

[Schwarber Fan]

Finish the game during the day tomorrow. Easy.

We have one with Kansas City. We do have common off-dates on September 14th (before our series in Pittsburgh) with us playing in Philly the night before and them being at home. That seems to be a good bet.

This game isn't official, it would be wiped out

[DiamondMind]

Well this sucks. I guess if they call it we're still up on SF. :D

[Schwarber Fan]

Then play 2 tomorrow. I'm sick of losing our off days.

Double header means crappy pitchers, not sure who the Cubs would even start
