5/1 Braves (Teheran) @ Cubs (Lackey) 1:20 WGN

This is now the Sunday game thread, since the tears of yesterday's whining washed out today.

[Sammys Boombox]

If my math is correct the Cubs are 62-23 their last 85 regular season games. That's a 118-win pace.

Being 6 games up on the Cardinals before May is pretty awesome.

The Cardinals are twice as far away from first place as they are last place.

The Cards being pounded by other teams pleases me

i honestly thought it was better than that

Selfishly, I'm kinda okay with this. I have a ton of [expletive] to do today and I didn't want to have to miss a game.

Wednesday and today were the only games this week I was going to be able to watch uninterrupted so I'm not thrilled

[halplm]

Today was the worst. I could not find a gif that portrayed my sadness at the appropriate level. Apparently kittens and puppies can't look sad enough. Furthermore, they're skipping Hendricks, so there's no chance I'll get to see Arrieta in San Fran when I will be at the game.

 

Please tell me there is no rain coming in tomorrow?

Doesn't look like any serious rain coming in, just going to be cold and miserable.

 

Going to be a couple blocks away and checked stubhub to see if I could pop in for a few innings, maybe grab a hot dougs. Cheapest bleacher is still $60??? What are your guys go to for cheap last minute tickets?

there shouldn't still be tickets on stubhub...they stop selling a few hours before the game.

What are your guys go to for cheap last minute tickets?

 

A time machine? Probably not going to be a ton of cheap tickets to be had this year.

Can John Lackey close his mouth?

Good. It's flooding here all weekend and I need some good TV if stuck indoors.

For ones like bleacher seats? I figured those would always have demand on the weekend, even when the weather stunk.

[David]

don't really know how bleachers ended up specifically on stubhub but as of last night, there were like 3k+ tickets available and what i saw was priced pretty cheap...well below face.

[Sammy Sofa]

horsefeathers, I guess I've been lucky selling mine.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I'm really gonna need to see an offensive explosion today, after the rain-out yesterday. Plus, I won't be able to watch any of the Pirates games. So I definitely need some dongs to hold me over.
