Nova has pretty much sucked this year, but he has a pretty good track record against the Cubs...including this year.

[Stu]

Nova’s approach seems to work really well against these Cubs hitters. With both him and Kyle pitching, this could be a very quick game

Win this one and the Cubs are guaranteed 8 straight days without a loss. I mean, sure, they’ll only play 3 games in those 8 days but you’ve got to take what you can get.

[UMFan83]

Win today and the Cubs will even up the all-time (regular season) record vs White Sox.

Nova's approach at this point is "huck it over the plate and hope the BABIP gods bail me out." A few weeks ago they did, but I wouldn't give too much credit when a guy walks 2 and K's 1 over five innings. He's just a guy who came into that game with a 6 something ERA, who actually "deserves" a 5 something ERA, and finally got some positive regression.

Nova gets a fly out to the wall by Schwarber(102mph) caught and a rocket by Rizzo(113) caught. Living good.

Jesus, just put an L screen in front of Nova. These outs are really annoying.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Contreras-101 mph out

Heyward-96 out

Vic-100 single

Robel-106 out

[TMan92]

Can’t hit the ball any harder

[cl smooth]

dempster's not too bad at color.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Absolute trash abs by Kyle and KB

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Now a leadoff double stranded. Unreal.

[Tryptamine]

Hendricks could have easily gotten Collins at 2B

[TMan92]

Trouble

[TMan92]

This defense

[Tryptamine]

Falling behind 2-0 on just about every batter this inning

[TMan92]

Great job receiving that ball Vic.

[Tryptamine]

..this ump sucks

[We Got The Whole 9]

Cubs are chasing so much horsefeathers today

[TMan92]

Nova has a horseshoe up his ass

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Hey Cubs blow another leadoff Double!!
