10/2/18 NL WILD CARD Rockies (Freeland) @ CLERBS (Lester) 7:00 CST ESPN

[NotSoSober]

If Lester takes the at bat, and somehow gets on, do you pinch run with Gore?

Yes, but only if we waste an out and bunt him over

[Schwarber Fan]

Typical Lester start. 1st inning run followed by dominance. Sucks that it might mean the difference in the game.

If Lester takes the at bat, and somehow gets on, do you pinch run with Gore?

 

Yep. And then you have him stand there and not steal as the next three guys make outs.

[raw]

Going to go out on a limb and say the Rockies don't want to go too far with their short-rest starter the 3rd time thru the order.

[bjam12]

Why is ARod talking about how you can choose to pitch to either Holliday or Desmond? First of all he brings this up when the count is 1-2 and second of all you don’t just put another baserunner on in a 1 run game because you fall behind. And third of all it’s 48 year old Matt Holliday

 

Also mentioning having an open base is a luxury. Just an odd comment when a runner is in scoring position.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Is it me or has this game already taken 5 hours

[gflore34]

I was confident Lester would give the Cubs a QS, was hoping the offense might show up.

[NotSoSober]

Lester should punch Maddon too

[Schwarber Fan]

When’s the last time right handed Happ homered?

[chibears55]

He pulled Lester...

 

Now we get to see Happ strike out

[UMFan83]

Joe is going to regret that decision

Do the pitches he throws to this team even count towards his fatigue level?

[soccer10k]

Happ K incoming.

[SeldomSeen]

Score, assholes.

[weis21]

disagree with this call. vehemently

[Cubswin11]

Sucks we had to take him out but I think you gotta do it

[TMan92]

Happ striking out will be poetic justice

[bcl412]

Unless something happens horsefeathers this

[Brian]

here comes the 3-2 borderline called strike

if looking a the next series but, these guys couldn't hit a softball pitcher right now.

[Soul]

Why does it seem like it’s automatically the “right call” to pull a starting pitcher in a playoff game like this? I have way less confidence that our bullpen will hold them to one run.

[soccer10k]

Just throw one in the zone, Freeland. He'll swing through it.

[UMFan83]

I honestly forgot that walking was a possibility

[Jaxbro]

I hope Lester is just pounding beers and eating chicken now
