8/5: fodders (lucabrassiswimswiththefishes) @ Cubs (Lester) 1:20 WGN

[TMan92]

Brewers just tied the game on another wild pitch.

[Sammy Sofa]

Another wild pitch; Brewers and Rockies tied.

[UMFan83]

At least the Padres would only be 4-18 over their last 22 after this series if they win

[Hairyducked Idiot]

 

I mean maybe it will. It’s just funny watching Lester give up rockets to the worst offense in baseball and people are like “horsefeathers yes the bullpen is so good”

But that’s kinda the point, if the starters suck or get in trouble we have a very good bullpen to go to if they have a short leash with the SP and they can keep us in games and it’s not revolutionary to win that way in the playoffs.

 

The tried and tested playoff method of giving up a [expletive] of runs immediately

 

You can just wait until the three-run homer is in the air and yell "Takebacks!" to bring in your relief ace to re-do the at-bat now. It's a new rule.

What a stupid horsefeathering sport

[Sammy Sofa]

Fraud comebacks all around today!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

horsefeathers baseball.

[UMFan83]

Nice AB Schwarber

[CyHawk_Cub]

Break up the Padres. They have played the Cubs tough this year regardless of h2h record.

[Regular Show]

Damn. I don't think we can trust CJ in a close game in the playoffs again. His control issues might never go away.

[Cubswin11]

Damn. I don't think we can trust CJ in a close game in the playoffs again. His control issues might never go away.

He’s like the one guy who’s BB/9 has gone down with Hickey too. Bizzaro world.

[UMFan83]

Here is the Brewers 9th: homer, groundout, catchers interference, strikeout, strikeout reaches in error, double by a really bad player, wild pitch to score a run

[UMFan83]

Of course the Padres trade away all their good relievers except this guy

[TMan92]

Sorry for the mispost earlier but the only time I have ever seen a catcher’s interference, a dropped third strike and a wild pitch to score a run was in game five of the NLDS last year.

[gobigred]

Why do most caratini at bat's look like he is hitting with a pool noodle

[UMFan83]

Yeah but the Brewers didn’t do it in consecutive ABs so HA

[BigSlick]

Baseball is a cruel sport played by the gods on all of us

[Tim]

how the hell did that not get out on a day like this?

[Schwarber Fan]

I give up, baseball sucks.

[imb]

Every time Caratini hits a 7 foot dribbler foul all I can do is think about how sick our bullpen is

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Nice camerawork. Guy must have fallen asleep from all the groundball foul-offs.

[Schwarber Fan]

Bottom 9th lines up well if we can hold the deficit.

[Cubswin11]

Today is really testing me ever trying to be positive about anything and just say horsefeathers it and stop following until October when I hopefully check and things work like the should and we have a playoff game scheduled. Somehow

[Brian]

lol CB

This is definitely one of those days during the baseball season when I'm struggling.
