10/18 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Mets (Syndergaard), TBS, 7:07 CT

[Fred Hornkohl]

P/PA through 3 inning(s)....

 

CUBS: 4.91

Mets 4.33

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[abuck1220]

that intentional walk was some dusty baker [expletive]

 

It also had nothing to do with the Mets' 4th run.

 

you have no way of knowing this.

[Schwarber Fan]

Who's flying out to the warning track this inning?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Runs plz

[TysonCBulls423]

Would be stoked if we could generate 2 runs this inning.

[minnesotacubsfan]

Should we all just get drunk?

 

Or high. You can in WA.

 

Comon over

[DurbanJer]

Is cold our kryptonite? Every ball seems like it's hard to field. Shhesh

Whoever complained about the Mets getting home field advantage absolutely had it right. It could very well be the biggest reason the Cubs lose this series.

 

no it doesn't matter that much

 

in fact, if anything, the current setup would at least get them warm games at home for the dongs... it's coldish in chicago right now too.

I was half kidding. I don't believe there's much home field advantage in general. id say it's 10 degrees warmer in Chicago right now so better hitting conditions but that really isn't limiting the mets right now

[squally1313]

I know this sounds smallball-y, but I'd really love if we could get a baserunner before there are two outs.

[Guest]

Sulley,that's enough !! Just stop it now.

 

i toned it down. the dude dug up a hilarious post from like 3 pages back.

[Andy]

 

seriously? why?

 

Not so much that I didn't think it was possible. I just really didn't think it would happen. Felt like our year. Still could be but this sucks

[Irrelevant Dude]

If things continue down their current trajectory, what are the chances Lester starts Game 4?

[Cubswin11]

Runs now, idiots

[abuck1220]

It also had nothing to do with the Mets' 4th run.

 

pretty sure granderson doesn't try to steal 3b if murphy is retired and there are two outs.

[Andy]

So Lester and Arrieta lose 2 and the Cubs come back to even the series behind Hendricks and Hammel. Stranger things have happened.

We just went 2-0 in Hendricks and Hammel starts. Just have to do it again

[SpongeWorthy]

Clearly we are losing because of all the post NLDS partying

[Schwarber Fan]

garbage strike 2 call.

 

UGH

I think we can be relatively certain. Even if Granderson doesn't steal with Murphy at the plate, Murphy is very likely to try to pull the ball and get Granderson to 3rd.

 

Result aside though, that walk is a bad bad idea

[TysonCBulls423]

That was the SAME DAMN pitch!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Again, not a strike.

[Andy]

Another bad strike call, Arrieta hasn't gotten a single one of them yet

[LeonDurham]

Wtf??!!!

[UMFan83]

Every close call goes against the Cubs

[KatJ]

I know this sounds smallball-y, but I'd really love if we could get a baserunner before there are two outs.

 

Dare to dream..
