8/9 Giants (Peavy) @ Cubs (Arrieta) - 1:20 pm CT CSN

Why did we bunt with 2 strikes there with a guy who just tripled?

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Don't like that bunt with 2 strikes.

[Schwarber Fan]

Maybe someday this summer the wind will be blowing out.

[Guest]

ugh, wind and wrong part of the park, that was a mistake and it was smashed

[Sammy Sofa]

Peavy has a scary face.

Why did we bunt with 2 strikes there with a guy who just tripled?

 

He's a pitcher; basically any hit they get is luck.

[Gilby]

There's no way Maddon called for that bunt on 0-2. Not quite sure what Arrieta was doing there.

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm fine with the bunt. Despite the triple, I still think Arrieta hitting into a double play is more likely than Russell not coming through with two outs.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This has been the worst summer for the ball carrying at Wrigley I can ever remember.

[Guest]

Why did we bunt with 2 strikes there with a guy who just tripled?

 

Because he has a .319 OPS this year, and to make sure he doesn't GIDP and let the red hot guy behind him try to drive in the runner

Through 4 innings CUBS are seeing 4.83 P/PA.... Giants are seeing 3.44 P/PA.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-17 (.370) when they get fewer than 2 extra base hits.... 51-31 (.622) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Isn't this the inning where we start hitting dongs and send the pitcher to the showers ??

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have HR'd in 4 straight games and 12 of their last 13.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[OleMissCub]

Kyle! What a stud. He fears no one. For those not on the CSN feed, they just showed Schwarbs exchanging words with Peavy while in the box.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Through 5 innings.... CUBS are seeing 4.81 P/PA.... Giants are seeing 3.79 P/PA.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Schwarber Fan]

I realize the brewers suck and we just took four games from them but you just gotta wonder who's going to beat the Cardinals this year.

Peavy "what are you looking at!!???" What a douchebag. Edited August 9, 2015 by RammyFanny

One of the teams they face.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have not had an opposing starter throw 100 pitches in their last 6 games (5-1).

 

 

Go CUBS !!

They're on pace for 105+ wins. Anything can happen in the playoffs but that's when the Cardinals thrive.

[Geech]

I feel disappointed that Peavy made it through five innings.

[Sammy Sofa]

Arrieta's release point has seemed odd today. I'm probably/hopefully imagining it.

[DiamondMind]

Ran to the store - what is Peavy bitching about??

[Guest]

How many real life friends do you think Jake Peavy has? I'm thinking three max
