[ARCubsFan]

I'd let him face McCutchen and then pull him

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 80-2 (.976) when they lead at the end of the 8th inning.... 17-63 (.213) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Wilson A2000]

Guys we are 3 outs away from playing Satans Fowls in a [expletive] playoff series. Holy [expletive]

 

When was the last time the Cubs played the Cards in the playoffs?

8th inning chant: [looking up what movies come out this weekend]

 

"Why on earth did I spend $250 on this pirate costume?"

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 17-0 (1.000) when their starter pitches 8 innings or more.... 80-65 (.552) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Ski]

3 more to go!

[UMFan83]

I wouldn't be surprised if Joe has him come back out in the 9th. That said Joe talks about high stress pitches and jake has had to make more than usual tonight so maybe he's done.

 

Also he's due up 4th this half inning. That would make the decision easy

[Ding Dong Johnson]

thank you lord. does he come back out for hte 9th?

Yes. Joe isn't looking at numbers today.

[kujay]

So nasty. Love ya Jake.

Never.

Making fun of Pirates fans on Facebook. Saying should have hit Arrieta in the hands, bringing up that Kang can't play because of the Cubs being dirty, and a large strike zone being the reason for Arrieta being so good.

Jake kinda sorta struggled in the middle innings, yet he's still at 8 scoreless with 11 K's.

For real? How about never

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Jebus, I'd probably have a massive heart attack in a WS game 7 if I can't damn handle a WC game.

That's kind of remarkable

[Brian]

yeah, I want Jake to finish this [expletive]

[UMFan83]

Jake kinda sorta struggled in the middle innings, yet he's still at 8 scoreless with 11 K's.

 

That's what I'm saying...his line is 8IP 4H 0ER 0BB 2HBP 11K in a high pressure game on the road and I feel like he wasn't ar his best. Awesome

@TheNatidude: Matt Williams would have sent the Gatorade jug back out. "He's our cooler."

Not really when you consider previous playoff formats coupled with the franchise's historic ineptitude.
