10/13 Cardinals (Lackey) @ CUBS (HAMMEL), TBS, 3:37 CT

[Guest]

Wish we started Haren.

[Sammy Sofa]

Uhhhhhhh.

 

Could have had Hamels.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 74-18 (.804) when they score first in the game.... 26-48 (.351) when they don't

CUBS are 84-38 (.689) when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 16-28 (.364) when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

How short is that leash again?

[UMFan83]

This might be Hammels last appearance in a Cubs uniform

Pannnniiiiiccccc

[CubmanPi]

I have a new least favorite human in the world, and he pronounces "spaghotti" like a 2-yr-old.

[Outshined_One]

We got this.

Haren couldn't be worse.

[Guest]

Piscotty had 39 home runs in over 1600 professional PA entering the playoffs, 3 in 4 games now.

[Sammys Boombox]

Unbelievable

[Guest]

hammel will now settle down and allow no more runs. we will hit many dongs. all is well.

[PrimeTime]

Hammel is [expletive] garbage..I rather start Lester this game and hammer it down or have wood or Cahill start ot even Richard

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This might be Hammels last appearance in a Cubs uniform

 

That feels unlikely.

[BigSlick]

are you freaking kidding me

 

what the hell

[SouthSideRyan]

is there even any way i get a seat at a bar at this point?

 

the fact that i'm alone helps at least but yeah. i was thinking about heading out toward the middle if it's going well but then i miss stuff and will probably have no chance of finding a seat.

 

I assume you're talking Wrigleyville?

 

yep

 

my favorite for that type of thing is bernies (mainly because i love the steak sandwich there)

 

Buddy of mine went there for the wild card game, said it wasn't too overrun. You could at least get in there. I wouldn't plan on eating anywhere in Wrigleyville though.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 2-0 with Mark Carlson behind home plate..........

Wishful thinking then?

Cardinals hitting HRs in the playoffs at a rate significantly higher than in the regular season? Not shocking at all. Did the same thing last year also.

[Outshined_One]

We weren't shutting them out today. Just have faith in the power of the dong.

[davell]

We're scoring lots of runs today. Which is good, because we may need to.

[Outshined_One]

Call it.

robot umps
