Kyle Schwarber game 1 starter but

 

 

 

By the way, I’m going to make “Niles gotta have it” t-shirts so get your orders in.

My son is named Niles. I’ll take one.

Holy horsefeathers, I know we win these games now, but damn. It still feels weird. But its a horsefeathering great weird.

This line needs to live on forever on this board.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Now, that we got that out of the way, let's sweep these pretenders and rest up for the World Series.

So Pedro and the gang are trying to figure out how to get Dusty Baker a Championship.

 

I always figured that Dusty just really never figured out how to manage pitchers.

Dusty often messes up pitcher management and strategy, but tonight that wasn't a problem unless you consider using Scherzer the wrong move.

 

Batting Werth second and starting him every game while Kendrick rotted on the bench...well that is on Dusty.

I told you guys, never in doubt

They can whine about whatever calls they want, at most it makes up for MLB refusing to move game 4 to a time when it wouldn't be raining.

 

The Cubs would have won the series a game and a day (two actually) sooner.

[Brian]

Theo is probably my favorite person that has ever existed.

Kelly Crull & Q interviews are the best

[Cubfanintheknow]

This game had so many more "just kill me now" moments than Game 7 for me. Still can't believe they won it.

[ScrubMD]

Harper pretty obviously doesn't want Dusty coming back lol

 

I can't wait until he's a Cub.

[Schwarber Fan]

Has anyone clarified that Baez play? Was it legitimately the wrong call or can the ump say the contact didn’t affect the play?

Cubs have an .800 win percentage in double-elimination games over the last three decades. Clutch franchise.

Game 7 of the 2016 World Series aside, where would you rank the excitement level of that game with some of the others in recent years?

 

I think this falls in between the Montero grand slam game and the clinch v the Giants last year.

 

Only Game 7 tops it.

I'd rank NLCS clinch over this. That's no knock against this one by any means.

[SpongeWorthy]

reminder that the doyers are a horsefeathering trash franchise and need to be destroyed post haste

horsefeathers, Kyle had that in hand. We were smoking victory cigars in the dugout in the third inning.

Not everyone can be Jon Lester.

3 NLCS appearances in a row. In all seriousness, I have a hard time believing it....

[Cubfanintheknow]

 

This is the best.

Where are you all seeing this? TBS has zero homer stuff.
