Our board has some weird telekinesis that makes people post game threads at the exact same time as I posted mine right after yours

 

Simpson with a good start, 5IP, 3H, 1ER

Chirinos ties it with a 2-run bomb in the top of the 8th.

 

Heuer gives up a solo shot in the bottom. Ponies up by 1.

I know a lot of people don't want to see the Cubs win, but I like what they're doing of late. Will the couple of spots in the draft cost them? Maybe, maybe not. But I do like that they're playing tough and winning a bit. I know it's been mostly against crappy teams, but so what. Would have been easy to mail it in on all fronts. I just can't root for them to lose.

 

On a different note, I know it was questioned during the lengthy losing streak Rossy's role in all of it. Could probably give him some accountability even though he had sub-standard roster. But then he should also get some credit for getting this roster to play, not give up, win some games, and be competitive against better clubs.

Single, sacrifice bunt, groundout, passed ball. What a way to lose it

Ross keeps giving MeGill chances to pitch, that's on him.

Yeah, Megill hasn't even been unimpressive. He's just downright bad.

 

I don't mind losses like last night. They mad a comeback to tie/take lead in the game twice late, which was nice to see. Showed some gumption yet still lose. Very 2013 & 2014.
