9/17 Cubs (Hendricks) @ Pirates (Morton) 11:35 CDT, WGN/MLBN

Unbelievable futility with men at 3rd. We're gonna end up losing 3-5 games because of that alone.

I've got to consider some game thread forum bans during the playoffs.

Dammit Hendricks

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 14-20 (.412) when the opponent hits at least 2 HRs.... 70-41 (.631) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Looking at the feature request queue, not sure we'll get that one in.

Mods can take care of that one, though. They're more on the ball than me.

[apete6]

bring the DH to the NL

 

Yeah, I don't see HOW baseball people can continue to not see this. How awesomely exciting was that intentional walk/obvious K sequence?

[Schwarber Fan]

Go ahead and ban me, but tell me we didn't lose the Peralta game, the game Motte blew before the Hamels no-no, and Lester's start in STL (just off the top of my head), largely because we continually blew chances to add on to a lead.

[BigSlick]

we need more runs

 

why are they allowed to dong at their cavernous stadium and we arent

I'd wager that most teams lose a lot of games as a result of failing to score more runs.

LITERALLY EVERY TEAM IN BASEBALL CAN SAY THE SAME THING

I'm sure you can find plenty of examples where we did continue to add to the lead and won because of it. What's your point?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-13 (.594) when they hit an opposing batter.... 65-48 (.575) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

hitting baseballs is incredibly hard and every team in the league blows opportunities to win games

 

I believe we still have an incredible record in extra innings and in 1 run games. it sucks but well, yeah we've done ok

[Bryants Disco Ball]

The numbers prove me wrong and it's not right to think this, but I just don't like Hendricks.

[PrimeTime]

Alright time for Hendricks to leave the game

[UMFan83]

I can't wait until Joe Maddon has a "bullpen game" for game 2 of the NLDS

That was a really clever Rondon Fan joke. :(

[Guest]

Sigh

[Ski]

Why are the Pirates allowed to dong at their ginormous stadium but our lineup full of mashers hits long flyouts?

[weis21]

well that certainly sucked. at least it wasn't a 3 run shot i guess

[PrimeTime]

. I don't care , I do not like him..Sick of these noodle arms in our rotation

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 3-6 (.333) when the opponent hits at least 3 HRs.... 81-55 (.596) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[UMFan83]

And we're losing just like that.

[Sammys Boombox]

Stop sucking
