09/30 CUBS (Lester) @ Cincinnati (DeSclafani) 6:10 CDT, WGN TV

[Guest]

If Phillips would've made the play Starlin did a few innings ago, Thom would've gone into 15 minute rant about Barney winning the gold glove in 2012.

 

lmao

 

is he gonna be doing our playoff games this year

i don't know where to look, but someone please confirm he will not. STAT, please.

 

i'd rather hear stuff like AND ANTHONY RIZZO (or KRIS BRYANT or KYLE SCHWARBER) PLAYS LONG BALL over whatever cardinal stroking crap joe buck has in store for us.

Just started watching. I see Lester gave up a run in the first. Going to go back and see if we had anybody freaking out...

It was 2 bloop hits and a sac fly, more annoyed than anything. That being said, this game also means literally nothing.

I don't know if this year's has been announced, but if last year is any indication, Brennaman will not be on the TBS team or on the World Series, so he couldn't call Cubs playoff games.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are seeing 4.23 P/PA..... Reds are seeing 3.38 P/PA through 7 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 74-4 (.949) when they lead at the end of the 7th inning.... 18-61 (.228) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

It's no secret the Cubs tried to shop around Castro at the deadline. He's a low OBP, below average defender guy. If you can improve your rotation by trading him, you do it. The Cubs have enough middle infield talent to get by.

he's not a below average defender guy

 

he's not?

It's going to be Ernie Johnson, Cal Ripken since TBS gets the NL Wild Card and NLDS games.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 39-14 (.736) when their starter pitches 7 innings or more.... 53-51 (.510) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

And the NLCS. Also Ron Darling makes a 3 man booth with those two, although they could change it from last year.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 54-14 (.794) when they get they get at least 9 hits .... 38-51 (.427) when they don't

Baez lining outside fastballs down the right field line is a very very good thing

Len. It was the whole stupid "let's hug it out, bitch" scandal.

Dammit. I didn't even think of Joe Buck being an alternative. Yes, I, too, would choose that douche Thom over Joe. But I'm decidedly unhappy to hear either of their voices, ever. Most definitely when it's a Cubs game.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

lol

[ScrubMD]

Baez hits balls hard.

[UMFan83]

Man the Reds are the worst fielding team I've ever seen.

[Guest]

hahaha these games have been amazing

 

it's not often you see a matchup disparate enough in baseball that the good team looks really competent and the bad one looks equally incompetent

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 27-3 (.900) when they get 5 or more extra base hits.... 65-62 (.512) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[weis21]

castro single and baez double back-to-back makes me really happy
