So that should have been a no-hitter. And Sammy Sofa thought I was crazy for getting so upset about that ball dropping.

Ride the butters wave

CUBS WIN!!

 

Final 25 Dodgers retired.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I think we might be pretty good.

IF it makes you feel better nobody cares about combined no-hitters.

Last 2 games against the Dodgers: 18 innings, 0 runs, 1 lost in the sun hit

Hammel cramping (if that is what it is) might have been the best thing that happened today. Chances are he wouldn't have been any better than our bullpen was.

Tim Federowicz was thisclose to playing in a no-hitter in his final major league game.

[Schwarber Fan]

Official scorer should change the hit to an error for the lulz.

[bcl412]

Our pitchers dominated. More dongs next time though.

Hahahaha. Thank God it dropped then. They would never be able to get rid of him.

quite a difference from last week when people were melting down after dropping the first game of the series to the cards.

[BigSlick]

Cubs own, Butters owns

Wasn't that one guy?

Whoever was freaking out obviously didn't realize Butters was due up in the rotation

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Heyward drove some flyballs today. Sure they weren't even hits, let alone HRs, it is just nice that he hit the ball into the gosh danged air. Should be a good summer and fall if he can do that more often

 

Yep. Seeing fly balls is good enough for me, even if they are lazy fly balls. It at least shows me he knows how to do something besides pounding the ball into the ground. Now he just needs to show that he can drive them for extra-bases.

With the win, the Cubs are back on pace for 116 wins

Prior to Monday, no reliever or group of relievers in the last 99 seasons had combined for as many as seven perfect endings in a game.

Last time this happened, Babe Ruth started the game

Ha, Ruth was ejected after punching the umpire. Quite the story
