5/6: Marlins (Alcantara) @ Cubs (Hamels) - 7:05 CDT - NBCSCH+

[BigSlick]

This team is in absurd Mega Cubs mode

[bcl412]

Javy was definitely ready to catch that fly to left and now I want to see him play outfield from short stop

[HawkeTrackler]

A 3 run deficit must feel insurmountable to this poor team.

[Schwarber Fan]

Castro is 0 for his last 25 and I’ll be stunned if he doesn’t get a hit here.

[Schwarber Fan]

Phew.

[BigSlick]

David Bote is trying too hard to hit in double plays every time he’s up. You don’t need to handicap the Cubs buddy

[NOLA]

It sure seems like Schwarber is missing pitches in the zone. He’s not swinging outside the zone, but he’s just not making good contact on good pitches to hit.

[NWICubsFan]

Letting them hang around and hitting into a horsefeathering doubleplay every inning is just begging them to take the game.

[Andy]

It sure seems like Schwarber is missing pitches in the zone. He’s not swinging outside the zone, but he’s just not making good contact on good pitches to hit.

He's basically got Ian Happ syndrome right now.

[NWICubsFan]

Saw that coming a mile away.

[UMFan83]

And we’re tied. Haven’t gotten a hit since the 1st inning so hopefully that changes soon.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

This is sooooo first 2 weeks of the season cobs.

[Schwarber Fan]

Alcantara is pretty nasty. Will be glad when he’s out of the game.

[BigSlick]

They deserve this. If you don’t step on the opposing teams throat, this’ll happen

 

I still think we win but it’s always bad luck to let a team hang around

[UMFan83]

The Marlins have already scored more runs against the Cubs than they did in the entire series in Miami

[UMFan83]

Alcantara is pretty nasty. Will be glad when he’s out of the game.

 

Crazy he’s still pitching. I think he had something like 45 pitches in the 1st inning

 

Edit: never mind he’s out

[bcl412]

Edwards presence breaks the cubs

[chicagocubs04]

Gotta score a few here

[bcl412]

Give me a scoreboard shot Kyle

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Well he ain’t a TOTAL bum.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Here comes Albert for the triple play!

[BigSlick]

I want Almora DFA’d for swinging at that first pitch immediately

[Andy]

Why in the name of crap did Almora take that AB instead of Descalso

[bcl412]

I don’t know exit velos tonight but feels like we’ve had a lotta hard hit BS

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Walk a couple more guys you butthole.
