Get this dope the horsefeathers out of here.

[TMan92]

All....with....two....out

[Schwarber Fan]

It sucks because the Kimbrel/Kintzler-less pen actually did a nice job. The bi-polar offense is just our downfall as it’s been all season.

[Old Style]

Well at least we have the Mitchell Trubisky show to look forward to Monday night.

[Cubswin11]

Somehow get out of this only down 1 and we got a chance. But this is pretty much the season if we lose.

[abuck1220]

Need all 4 against the Cardinals now.

 

shouldn’t be a problem after losing 2/3 to the horsefeathering reds

Iglesias is going to mow through us.

[Derwood]

Oh, NOW the ump is squeezing the zone

Huh?

[itisallpartoftheplan]

I know we walked him off in a tie game, but I don’t ever remember make Iglesias blow a save.

[Perd]

3 hits all [expletive] night? Pathetic.

Huh?

If we lose this one I don’t think we are making the playoffs in any variation (Division or WC).

[Old Style]

Don’t deserve to make the playoffs when you’re Tina to the Reds’ Ike.

When did they steal the Willson chant from the Nationals?

How so? If we lose we probably have to go 8-2, 7-3 the rest of the way with 5 of the wins needing to come vs the Cardinals to get in, which seems incredibly unlikely. The VBs schedule sets them up much better to play 1 game better from here on out for the WC.

Because baseball. It's pointless to try to project a 10 game stretch of games when bad teams beat good teams all the time

[soccer10k]

Fake rally time!

[Brian]

let's see... fly ball caught at the ivy?

[Old Style]

Dammit, Heyward.

[TMan92]

LOL Hoerner first swing.

[Brian]
