10/15 - NLCS Game 1: Dodgers (Maeda) @ Cubs (Lester) 7:08 PM CT FS1/670

Yikes Rizzo

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Dammit, Rizzo.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Stop sucking Rizzo

[DurbanJer]

Wake up Anthony

[Geech]

I hope Rizzo snaps out of it.

[Coach C]

If I was Maddon, I would think about switching Zobrist (or someone) with Rizzo. Got to have some protection for Kris.

[Thusly Boned]

I know Maddon and Rizzo insist that he isn't pressing, but he very clearly is. Did it last postseason, too.

[philosophizer75]

Rizzo wants to help out so bad that he's hurting his own chances.

[UMFan83]

Ugh I hate games when we come out hot get a lead and then stop. Let's make it not one of those games

[BigSlick]

Can we get a pop up home run like them?

[Rob]

Rizzo will get sorted out. I'm not worried.

[TMan92]

Everyone in the middle of our lineup is trying to look like Heyward, except Heyward

[davell]

Addy really needs to get ahold of one

[UMFan83]

I know Maddon and Rizzo insist that he isn't pressing, but he very clearly is. Did it last postseason, too.

 

I don't think it's pressing because it's the postseason. He has stretches like this in the regular season each year too where he looks lost, has a lot of weak contact and expands his zone frequently.

[sweetpeteman]

Rizzzo should be banned from swinging his next PA

[USSoccer]

This is irritatingly similar to G3 against the giants

[davell]

Nice swing

[gobigred]

felt pretty good until the pop up now I am expecting bad things

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Russell needed a bat toss to get his mojo going.

[Derwood]

Does Maddon think about benching Rizzo against Kershaw tomorrow? Even for a second?

[soccer10k]

This is irritatingly similar to G3 against the giants

 

Hopefully it's more like Game 2, except without our starting pitcher getting hit with a liner.

The double was a ball that got lost in the sun.

[UMFan83]

Man Riz and Addy killing us right now. Combined 2-36 in the playoffs.

[Gilby]

Aaaaand Pedro Baez has officially made me bored...in a postseason game the Cubs are winning by 2

[davell]

Easy 1-2-3 Jon....
