lol is this real life?

[Irrelevant Dude]

That's horse [expletive].

What happened?

[Schwarber Fan]

Had to know that 3-1 wasn't gonna be a strike. He'll learn that, probably before the end of the year.

[weis21]

lol wow. horrible. terrible. despicable call. horsefeathers off ump

[Andy]

Haha this is getting horsefeathering ridiculous with these umpires. I guess the best player in the whole horsefeathering league can't get a call

[Tim]

that's men on first and second with Rizzo coming up. What [expletive].

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

This umpire went totally blind this inning and it majorly screwed us.

[NotSoSober]

That's horse [expletive].

What happened?

Bryant just got Soler'ed

[Schwarber Fan]

Just seems like nothing has gone our way in quite a while.

[Tim]

I had to step away while Cahill was working. That's where we really miss Grimm for the seventh inning.

Yeah, the catching prospect coming up and looking amazing happens all the damn time.

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

It actually would have been bases loaded 1 out if this umpire would have gotten all the calls correctly.

[TruffleShuffle]

It's less annoying when a guy who is barely missing the strike zone gets calls like that. Lorenzen was all over the place and the ump gifted him three bad called strikes, including the last one against Bryant which was just an awful call. Just embarrassing.

[halplm]

I honestly think the umpires don't think the Cubs should be winning...

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Yeah, MLB needs to fix the human element calling balls and strikes.

[raw]

Why does this happen every day to the Cubs?

[Sammy Sofa]

Look, the waves and waves thing clearly worked out, but the FO seems repeatedly stymied by the tidal pool of relief pitching.

 

That metaphor works, right?

[Omar]

Why does this happen every day to the Cubs?

 

from the words of Donald Trump: The system is rigged.

[Tim]

Just seems like nothing has gone our way in quite a while.

 

Yeah, the catching prospect coming up and looking amazing happens all the damn time.

- Russell getting fixed

- Bryzzo going on monster tears

- Carl's Jr coming up and suddenly not walking guys

- Warren coming up and giving five solid

- etc.

[sneakypower]

Zobrist AB should have been a K

 

/ducks

Who knew the Cards fans were right when they said that MLB would make the Cubs take the bats off their shoulders?

I was saving the rest for his replies, dammit!

It's actually pretty interesting how a whole lot is going great for this team: all of those things plus Addisson being a monster at the plate, Zobrist showing power again, and yet in the last two weeks they've lost a whole bunch of games because everyone in the starting rotation except Hendricks has had bad starts and the bullpen has been a revolving door of blown saves
