5/3 Phillies (Eickhoff) @ World Champion Chicago Cubs (Arrieta) 7:05 CSN

[soccer10k]

The Cubs we know and love showed up (for the most part) tonight. We got 6 XBH, including 3 dongs, a lockdown bullpen (retired all 12 batters faced) and a decent start from Lester. Hopefully that was the first of a long winning streak.

 

CUBS are 14-12 when they play a baseball game

CUBS are 5-6 at home

CUBS are 3-2 when Arrieta starts

CUBS are 1-1 against the Phillies

CUBS are 1-2 on Wednesday's

 

Go CUBS!!

Do we celebrate if we don't allow first inning runs?

Yes, I believe we've raised a 5th flag pole in the bleachers in anticipation.

Ok, so running with the pack was fun for a month. Time to pull away and be not the worst division leader.

[Cubswin11]

Win, idiots

 

[CubmanPi]

The CUBS are allowing 3.2 runs per first inning since April 17th.

 

Go CUBS !!

[Bryants Disco Ball]

This is getting hilarious.

[UMFan83]

This first inning thing is one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen in baseball.

[Sammy Sofa]

Zobrist and Baez better horsefeathering keep hitting.

Alright, we gave up the minimum in the first!

 

(That is the minimum amount of runs a team is allowed to give up, right?)
