6/8 Cubs (Lackey) @ Phillies (Velasquez) - 12:05 pm CST (CSN)

[ScrubMD]

This is the worst game in the history of sports.

 

We've only lost 17 games and it's not even close to the worst game THIS season.

 

Yes it is

0-0 tie in 4th?

 

That 13-5 loss to the Reds was pretty bad.

[BigSlick]

The worst game of the season was probably a win, the game where Lackey got Schwarber totally murdered.

 

This has the potential to be the worst game of the season, if the Cubs can't score against 8 and 2/3 of bullpen. (I think the Cubs will absolutely pound them eventually)

[UMFan83]

Worst loss and the 2 runners up:

 

2nd runner up: May 11th vs. San Diego. Cubs had a 4-2 lead into the 7th, Cubs were cruising toward their 8th straight win. In the 7th, Hendricks gets the first 2 outs easily, then an innocent little bunt single sends Hendricks to the showers and then the Cubs implode giving up 4 runs and losing 7-4

 

1st runner up: May 3rd vs. Atlanta. Cubs are somehow stymied by the hapless Braves until the 8th when they score 2 runs to trail by 1. The Cubs come all the way back in the 9th off a Russell single, but then Rondon comes in and loses the game in the 10th.

 

Winner: May 24th @ St. Louis. No need to elaborate on this one.

[Tim]

We keep getting baserunners. Let's get some home.

[BigSlick]

Alright....similar situation. Lets get some runs

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Make them pay, Javy.

[ScrubMD]

You guys are wrong, this is the worst game ever.

[BigSlick]

Javy......

[BigSlick]

Terry Boers used to joke that Gordon Beckham would be 0-2 before you could blink and thats how I feel watching Baez hit (who has so much talent he can keep at-bats alive and make things happen sometimes)

[BigSlick]

Nice!!!!!

[Schwarber Fan]

Javy!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 24-3 (.889) when they score first in the game.... 16-14 (.533) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Now put them away.

[BigSlick]

Lackey bomb incoming

[Irrelevant Dude]

Javy earning that playing time.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 13-1 (.929) when their pitcher gets a hit.... 27-16 (.628) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

Javy earning that playing time.

Given what he can give you with the glove, anything he gives you with the bat makes him quite a valuable player

[UMFan83]

Javy earning that playing time.

 

He's continuing to get results despite ABs that mostly look ugly. I will take it.

[expletive] RON COOMER IS THE horsefeathering WORST. I now despise day games during the week.

He had a moment where he was like "Thats a pitch down and in *pause* and Fowler over the top of it" like god damnit ron, tell me the part of how its a strike before you make it sound like a ball

[UMFan83]

WTF was that Fowler?

I get irrationally angry and yell at the radio in the car when Coomer is spewing his nonsense. I don't think my wife gets it.
