10/17 CUBS (LESTER) @ NY Mets (Harvey), TBS, 7:07 CT

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have outscored the opponents 89-79 in the 1st inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I second the question as to why Harvey is called "The Dark Knight;" it makes no sense.

 

Some brief searching seems to say that this SI cover is the origin.

That's ridiculously lame.

Has dusty picked the Cubs in any game? Probably the wild card game.

 

Nope. He's picked against the Cubs every time I've seen it, WC, Game 1, Game 3, and I think Game 4.

 

I think I only missed Game 3 and I know he picked the Cards in all the games I saw so that means he's picked against them every time.

i'm completely out of the loop, why is there the batman stuff with Matt Harvey? Because of his last name Harvey and Harvey Dent?... a villain.

 

when he had his breakout season the Mets coined him "The Dark Knight" because he likes batman.

 

What the hell was their backup choice? "Pizza?"

I can't remember when I've seen wind so strong it's whipping uniforms

[DurbanJer]

What a lame playoff atmosphere, Mets fans

Was thinking the same thing. I think TBS does something with crowd noise

CUBS are 42-31 (.575) when Bryant hits in the third spot

CUBS are 83-58 (.589) when Bryant starts at 3b

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[UMFan83]

Made Schwarbs look silly.

 

Hopefully Lester doesn't have 1st inning struggles again

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 41-12 (.774) when they score in the first inning.... 60-54 (.526) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

That was kinda pathetic

[Guest]

Didn't like that first pitch swing, 4 seamer in a pitcher's spot, no reason to offer

[rawaction]

That was ugly.

[doublebubble]

[Ski]

Oh noes, everything is terrible!

[DurbanJer]

Well that sucked

I don't like how that started.

[Soul]

All part of the plan...

[minnesotacubsfan]

Mets are at home and fired up, that was predictable.

[Guest]

That was an unenjoyable first inning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I wouldn't mind seeing the occasional bunt down the 3rd base line from our left handed hitters against the extreme shift.

[UMFan83]

Come on Jon!

[Omar]

Announcers are homers for the non-Cubs team again.

At least he got the bat on the ball. Fowler and Schwarbs looked kinda foolish - swings about a mile long and coming up with just air.

I'm calling a David Ross dong to get things going.
