4/18 Braves vs. Cubs on SNB

[UMFan83]

I hadn’t made a game thread in 5 years until I made one yesterday (in the 2nd inning) and the Cubs scored 13 runs. In the last 6 games prior to yesterday, the Cubs combined to score 11 runs. Baseball is a funny game sometimes.

 

Hendricks is not sick anymore apparently and will start.

13 runs yesterday means one thing for sure. They decided it was time to cubtogether finally.

It’s really dumb that SNB is not Padres Dodgers

[Schwarber Fan]

Let’s get this win, it’s probably the last game until Wednesday thanks to the damn snow in the forecast.

Dodgers Padres is next week.

 

People keep complaining on Twitter and the poor MLB intern is responding to all and asking them to wait a single week.

[We Got The Whole 9]

We are talking about 2 divisional champs facing off tonight. Additionally the Padres and Dodgers have 5 more series to play against each other.

 

People are annoying.

[TMan92]

Nice start.

[CubinNY]

Off to a great start.

[CubinNY]

And that’s game.

[UMFan83]

This is going great

He has to be hurt, right?

He has to be hurt, right?

His command usually seems off early in the year, can't imagine the COVID stint helped

[TMan92]

Quite a different zone

[Derwood]

This has the makings of a 13-12 game

[Derwood]

In a game where 5 homers have been hit in 1 1/2 innings, Ross calls for a bunt. What a moron

[17 Seconds]

well there goes Kyle's trade value

[Schwarber Fan]

Hendricks should not have hit there. Use Mills.

That is inexcusable. I’m sure when he’s asked about it after the game he’ll rattle off some “trying to create a spark” type nonsense.

[Schwarber Fan]

Awful ABs by the 3 guys after Rizz there

[Schwarber Fan]

Cubs baseball has been the dumbest thing ever since 2016. horsefeathers.

[Derwood]

Replacing one 85 mph dork with another 85 mph dork didn't do much

[abuck1220]

not really enjoying the “pitch to contact” era of cubs baseball.
