7/21 Cardinals (Martinez) @ World Champion Cubs (Arrieta) 1:20 CT ABC7/670

[UMFan83]

This game thread is brought to you by the number 6.

 

 

These are the Milwaukee Brewers. They are currently 6 games over .500. They used to be 11 games over .500 but now they are not because they are not really that good.

 

 

This is Buck. Buck will turn 6 years old this year. Buck has never been alive to see his favorite team win the World Series. Buck thinks he got Kyle Schwarber's autograph. Buck is not very smart.

These are the Chicago Cubs. They were supposed to be good, but they were not. Then they started laughing because they were just pretending to be bad for laughs. The Cubs have won 6 games in a row.

 

The Cubs will continue their hot streak against the deadbirds. And if they win.....how many wins in a row does that make it?

Brilliant strategy by Joe to do a controlled tank of the first half to keep all our guys out of the All Star game.

It's going to be funny when we finish the season and UMFan's record as game thread starter is 75-2 and everyone else is 2-3.

No KB yet, but at least no LaStella defense

Muskat is saying he might miss whole series

[DouglasDorsey]

It looks like Martinez is much better vs right handers. Hopefully Wilson stays hot and our lefties do lots of damage.

The eye test tells me Arrieta is really using that sinker/2-seamer/running FB a lot more lately

[Aaron_Kennelly]

How the horsefeathers is that not strike 3?!

[Agony and Ivy]

94 with run from Jake.

[Cubswin11]

Think that was a make up call on the check swing by the HP ump seeing as the 0-2 pitch was well within the zone but called a ball

[Agony and Ivy]

2 batters in and this is the best he's looked in a looooong time

May: 49%

June: 64%

July: 70%

 

That inning: 88%

Is Dexter hitting 3rd a statement on how good he's been lately, or how crappy the rest of their offense is?

Carpenter's splits from the leadoff spot are much better than in the 2 or 3 spot so Matheny's dumbass caters to his mentally weak soft hitting 1B

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Glad you could see that while watching the ball into the dirt.
