8/13 Brewers (Cravy) @ Cubs (Lester) - 1:20 PM CT ABC

[Guest]

It's really hard to believe that Haren's ERA is just 0.08 worse than Sale's.

 

lol..

 

that was random

 

they just put up a graphic showing the weekend's matchups

[Ski]

To be fair, we can't complain about bad luck the way the last 13 games have gone.

[BigSlick]

I'm at the game and let me tell you, we've had a stupid amount of line outs

[UMFan83]

Wonder if the offensive hot streak is ending. 2 runs on Sunday, 6 on Tuesday, 3 yesterday in extras, 1 today so far. They looked great the first 4 innings Tuesday but then went silent the rest of the game. Yesterday they had 4 hits, tonight they are not getting hits against this shitbag

[JonJayCutler]

Roll over Lester this inning please.

[PrimeTime]

[expletive] lineouts

Man i wonder how many homers KB would have if the wind was actually blowing out like old fashioned Wrigley. I'd have to think like 20ish..

 

Does anyone know if there has been a study of the wind patterns with the new Video boards? I would think even if the wind was blowing out, since the boards are so big when the wind hits them it may create a sort of backdraft..

We're three, four lineouts away and Fowler's almost HR away from a handful of extra hits and another run against this scrub. The amount of bad luck we've had this game is comical.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I'm trying to develop a World Series swagger, so forgive me for this. But I really want, win or lose, to score five runs today so I don't have to worry that the offensive fireworks was just that thing every team does for a stretch once a season and that it's about to go away.

 

Judge me, if you want. I just had to say it. I hate myself.

[weis21]

OH BOY

[Tryptamine]

So many line drives and no results. Getting absolutely babip screwed today.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

And, yes, I can tell we've had bad luck this game.

[Careless]

Oh, this "guest" is going to go well

[Banedon]

My idea of what the game is just reading the wailing and gnashing of teeth in the thread: Cubs losing 5-0 and Lester has been chased.

 

The reality when I check: 1-1 and Lester has 6 strikeouts.

 

So silly.

 

Twitter was no less silly about it. David Schuster from the Score saying that the Brewers were laughing as they were stealing or something?

[Schwarber Fan]

When you're facing the Brewers, you better hope to beat their other four starters... everything else is Cravy.

Well I'm with you, but 4 rookies so who knows. they could start slumping again :(

why is she a "guest" and not just a guest?

[Fred Hornkohl]

hudahell is this woman ?

[Schwarber Fan]

Segura to 3rd, even if he had stopped at first there.

[Careless]

Oh my god, they got him

[Ski]

Meanwhile the Brewers get a dinky high hopper double.

 

But it doesn't matter, because yay Ross!
