What a freaking tool

Now that's a hot take. What's his username here?

[Cubswin11]

Walk off win it is then

[bcl412]

The crowd roared very loud for that routine fly

[UMFan83]

Lmao that it's so shocking to see Heyward hit one all the way to the OF that a routine fly ball is treated like a dong off the bat by the crowd

[Irrelevant Dude]

The crowd roared very loud for that routine fly

He hit it almost 300 ft in the air. That is an accomplishment.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I really wanted something to happen, not so much for us as for Jason.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Mike Wilbon gets paid to write and talk about sports. Shudder.

I too was fooled. I thought that was hit a lot harder than it was

Damn was he accidentally using his batting practice bat?

[OleMissCub]

[expletive] this is where you bring in Soler not groundy mcgrounderson

 

Precisely. Jorge is on a tear lately

It was so loud I started to believe it was carrying or something.

[Gmoney08]

Man i like Heyward and know there is a good offensive player in there but damn his swing is painful to watch.

 

Did his swing look like this with the Braves?

NOW he brings Soler in?

[UMFan83]

Ok again, big lead I get it but why does mr .615 OPS hit as the tying run and then you downgrade the defense by putting Soler in so he can hit in the 9th?

[bcl412]

Soler in for Heyward on defense is odd

[Cubswin11]

He should've PH when scissors did, IMO

[Sammys Boombox]

I'm pretty annoyed that Chapman is pitching now and was not brought in with 2 on 0 out in the 8th. He doesn't have to throw both innings. He just needs to be in the highest leverage situation.

[Cubswin11]

Double switch, pitcher spot is up 2nd in the 9th

Yes but no matter how progressive Maddon is, he bends to the wishes of his players and Chapman wishes to pitch the 9th

[BigSlick]

i hate the cardinals. i hate everything about them. i hate them with my life. i hate how they always pick crappy white guys who don't have any talent and then hey hit for an .850 ops and then do nothing else once they leave the team. i hate their attitude. i hate their fans. i hate that they always have some kind of crooked horseshoe up their butts. i hate that they've had a much better front office and farm system than the cubs for a very long time until recently. i hate playing them. i hate every comeback they have against us. and i cherish every victory we have against them

 

i'm very care right now about a game that literally doesn't matter. the cardinals can make that happen to me.

[Omar]

A moment of silence for that ESPN intern that had to make that MPH graphic for Chapman

 

My 2015 Honda Civic can go 105 btw.

What a freaking tool

Rondon Fan

 

Am I doing this right?

[bcl412]

 

What a freaking tool

Pure trolling but a game that happens with a month and a half left in the season shouldn't remind you of this.

I hate how the Cardinals are going to win the WC and instead of nothing to lose like last year we will have everything to lose. Not saying that means we lose a potential series just that it's going to be a lot more nerve wracking than last year and potentially devastating if we don't win.

[TMan92]

Well, let's fix 7 and 8 and everything is swell again.
