5/29 Cubs (Kyle) @ Astros (Miley) NBCSCH/ESPN 7:10 Central

Find a way to not horsefeathers this up, bullpen.

[Sammy Sofa]

It's a cliche, but it's always ridiculous how slow Almora is.

[Derwood]

Bucknor, you raging anus.

 

Heyward, who stands 24 feet from the plate, has to straighten up on an inside pitch to not get hit.

 

Bucknor: Strike!

[NotSoSober]

I wouldn't mind at all if Hendricks came back for the 9th. I'm sick of this bullpen

[Sammy Sofa]

This offense is...frustrating.

[Andy]

I don't know what the record is for most home runs hit by a team in a losing 3 game sweep and I hope I don't find out what it is.

[Gilby]

I really can't handle another leading after 8 innings loss. So please don't.

[Sammy Sofa]

Please just win, you clods.

[We Got The Whole 9]

So what's going on with the Iapochilly offense lately. Yikes.

[Derwood]

Bucknor, you beautiful man

[Schwarber Fan]

Nicely done, Cishek. Man, that was needed. On to St. Louis.

[OleMissCub]

Thanks CB!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Big time start by Kyle, both of them, and a clean 9th by Cishek!

Just needs a bit more cinnamon, like Skyline

 

Well done Cischek. Time to sweep the Cards again.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

We should have won two of three in this series considering it was the Astros' Triple A lineup throughout, but at least we won one.

[weis21]

Assuming the report that little girl is and will be OK,

 

Yes! Cubs win!

Emotional Addison Russell laments postgame that Almora's foul ball didn't hit his ex-wife

[BigSlick]

Whoa, they won a low scoring game

[Sammy Sofa]

[CyHawk_Cub]

Not getting swept by a team missing 3 MVP-caliber players is cool. Seriously though, the Astros are deep as horsefeathers. Best org in baseball.

[Derwood]

LeVasseur, a Houston resident sitting in the first row of section 111, did not see the ball hit the child, whom he estimated was sitting in row seven or eight, but did rush upstairs after the incident to check on the injury. The baseball had no traces of blood and, according to LeVasseur, there was none near the seat.

 

"All we heard was screaming," said LeVasseur, 26. "We saw this dad pick up a child and run up the stairs. He took off running.

 

"I (came) upstairs and see the first-aid guys up there and the dad is holding the girl. She (was) alert, she's conscious, she's fine. I was just going to give somebody in the family the ball. They kind of, naturally, shook it off. I asked the first-aid guy if she was OK and he said he didn't know."

 

Immediate efforts to find the stricken child or the family were unsuccessful. The Astros issued a statement following the game.

Great words from Albert

Thank you for taking the initiative to write this personally

They are discussing this on Dan Patrick and Rich Eisen. Should put up netting or require kids to wear helmets.

I really hope she is ok - I would never ever sit with my kids in those seats.
