Good God Schwarber is amazing

[Fred Hornkohl]

That makes 5 runs scored in each of their last 3 games.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Soul]

Lordy that kid can hit

[Freyr]

No excuse for Schwarber not to be in the lineup every single day.

[Schwarber Fan]

My feed is way behind but hell yes!!

[BigSlick]

as reported back at the beginning of year by an anonymous Cubs scout, Kyle Schwarber is "Babe effing Ruth"

[Little Slide Rooter]

Time for Bochy to pry the pull from his pitcher's..COLD DEAD HAND! Come one, somebody must have got that reference.

[Derwood]

One Schwarbs to rule them all

[BigSlick]

These last two pitches don't even really show up in the frame on Gameday

Yeah, we got it...... but we're gonna pretend we didn't.

Have to keep him in there while he's hot and the matchup is favorable. Better be in LF tomorrow. Sorry, Coghlan.

When Kyle hit that ball I thought it was 20 rows deep. Wrigley has turned into Petco East

I really don't get it. I had no idea park factors could change *this* much. I guess we've had a very mild summer to this point...(and the obvious thing, the added video board etc)

It's all that climate change, eh? ;)

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 31-5 (.861) when they score 5 runs or more.... 27-43 (.386) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I knew it wouldn't be because of the wind and such, but it definitely looked like it ought to have been that far.

chris heston is a 27 y/o 12th rounder rookie? ugh

 

I don't get why you guys are so caught up in things like this. Some players/pitchers aren't championed in the minors and can develop into really good players in the majors. It happens quite often actually.

 

I have to ask; is your screen name a tribute to Marvelous Marc or is Mark Mero your name?

[Fred Hornkohl]

That Heston fellow has really settled down, eh? ;)

[Guest]

how does he hit it, he doesn't have ligaments

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 23-2 (.920) when they allow fewer than 2 extra base hits.... 35-46 (.432) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 26-31 (.456) when the opponent hits at least 1 HR.... 32-17 (.653) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!
