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

[Schwarber Fan]

Alright, this makes up for a lot of failed RISP hitting...

[badger1679666666]

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.

 

It's so stupid it hurts my brain, stop quoting it.

Well, this is entertaining.

[Stu]

Cmon Cubs, you got your foot on their throats, CUT THEIR HEADS OFF!

[Guest]

Always surprising how well Schwarbs runs

[TMan92]

Go home, pummel St. Louis, let the LA guys take care of business. and take over second in the Central.

[BigSlick]

This lead is fast becoming Motte-proof

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 12-1 (.923) when they score 9 runs or more.... 72-60 (.545) when they don't

CUBS are 8-0 (1.000) when they get they get at least 13 hits .... 76-61 (.555) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[KatJ]

Well, it seems I haven't missed a pitching gem.

[TMan92]

We are really going to regret not getting that 10th run!

 

 

 

 

kidding

[Ski]

Oh come on.

[badger1679666666]

Another man left on 3rd with less than two outs.

[apete6]

Am I greedy for wanting that one last guy from 3rd to score there?

[ScrubMD]

Ugh, Cy LaFromboise

[mul21]

Go home, pummel St. Louis, let the LA guys take care of business. and take over second in the Central.

 

Seriously, if they can do anything against STL this weekend with Kershaw and Greinke going against PIT, this is fantastically realistic.

[Ski]

Not at all. Two ground balls there kinda sucked.

You wouldn't happen to be able to tell me our highest-scoring game in 2008, would you?

[Sammys Boombox]

Schwarber made two consecutive outs. Lol
