08/30 CUBS (Arrieta) @ Los Angeles (Wood) 7:08 pm, ESPN TV

[Ski]

Lol, of course a perfect scoop.

 

Score more runs, please.

[Schwarber Fan]

What are the chances that error gets changed to a hit?

[Outshined_One]

Isn't that an illegal block?

 

How so? Blocking only pertains to home

 

Could have sworn that fielders weren't allowed to impede the path to the bag. Pretty sure the ump specifically mentioned it and that got picked up on the field mic.

[Ski]

Cubs 0-4 with RISP tonight

Arrieta's hopefully the reason we're going to win tonight. However, the offense isn't making any reassurances.

I'm almost positive if they're making a play on the ball it's kosher. I thought the umpire was shouting about Castro's hand getting the bag. I could be wrong but I am pretty sure it was legal.

Cubs overall are 0-13 with RISP this series, 4-34 this road trip, and if you tack on the Cleveland game, 5-39 this week.

Hahahahahahahaha

They've hit the ball hard tonight. Crawford made a nice play to rob Rizzo and Bryant donged. Getting right.

[Agony and Ivy]

Hahahahahahahaha

 

Yeah how was that even a thought that it wasn't a swing? It was almost a full swing.

[UMFan83]

I love how Mattingly sits a struggling Peterson the first 2 games and then throws him out against Arrieta.

[Outshined_One]

Aw. I was hoping Joc would get tossed.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Dodgers seeing 4.50 P/PA through 5 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[NotSoSober]

don mattingly apparently never had a bad AB in his entire major league career

[OleMissCub]

Lol jake is unfair tonight.

[Ski]

Just like John Kruk. He was a .300 hitter, you know.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 50-22 (.694) when they get they get at least 8 hits .... 23-33 (.411) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Outshined_One]

Jake Arrieta just told Fate a joke. She laughed and tossed her hair.

[Ski]

I predict three runs and a Fowler HR this inning.

[Outshined_One]

The wave at Dodger Stadium? Must be the 6th in a tight game.

[Schwarber Fan]

Need more runs.

[UMFan83]

This dude had 53 pitches through 2 innings. I cannot believe he's finished 6 innings.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are seeing 3.78 P/PA through 6 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 28-31 (.475) when the opponents get a quality start.... 45-24 (.652) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Ski]

That inning sucked.

[Outshined_One]

That was a strange defensive alignment.
