3/28 - Cubs (Steele) vs Rangers (Eovoldi): 6:35pm, ESPN

[UMFan83]

Last September, the Cubs lost 5 games where they had an 8th inning or later lead, which was tied for the most in a month for any MLB team over the last 50 years.    They also went 0-4 in extra innings in September.

If the Rangers score here to win its like we picked right back up where we left off.

Feels like ballgame

There's no reason to believe it will continue, but given how horrible the end of last season was, the last thing I wanted was to be reminded of it again on the first game of the next season lol

This is a very annoying game. Just horsefeathers all around. 

[ToolDRT]

I feel like the extra innings rule is one that really ruins the game. 

[Andy]

Sure looked like he went

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Jung had a 5% walk rate last year and he's held up on like 5 great 2 strike pitches today

[Rex Buckingham]

Going from the draft to MLB roster in 7 months is crazy and nearly unprecedented for a position player

[Andy]

That was really slick by Mastro

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Oh I’m not disagreeing. But like, chill a little? He hasn’t done anything yet. 

[Andy]

Drew Smyly remains bad at baseball

[WhyCantWeWin]

[Brock Beauchamp]
