[WhyCantWeWin]

Woah woah he’s still in there

[UMFan83]

Amaya started out hitting well but seems to be struggling as he’s gotten more consistent ABs. 0 for his last 15

[JHBulls]

Atta boy, Shota!

I’d be starting him in the 8th, with a reliever warming up. 

[chibears55]

Might as well let him try to finish this one...

Imanaga..

ROY

Cy Young

MVP

😅😅😅

It's contagious 

[PackLandVA]

Wish yous guys would stop making predictions. Yeesh!

[We Got The Whole 9]

Another meatball that Happ swings right through    ,

[PeanutPunch33]

lol they are so eager to swing at everything that they won't even let Nico take the free base

[UMFan83]

The Cubs have gotten the leadoff hitter on in 4 straight innings and in 5 of the 8 innings overall but have gotten a total of 1 run.  Frustrating.

“Speaking of zeros… Adam Ottavino…” Imagine if Boog got distracted and left it at that. 

[PeanutPunch33]

It'll suck watching Neris come out in the 9th in a 1-0 game 

[PeanutPunch33]

Wow, they pulled Shota

[JHBulls]

That was literally the most baseball history ever lol. Craig Counsell and Al Leiter played on the same World Series winning team in 1997 and 27 years later Craig Counsell is managing Al Leiter’s son.

Mark Leiter Jr's dad is MARK Leiter, not Al.

I feel like that is a mistake that is made often on here? 😂 

[Derwood]

That was a strike earlier in the game

We hope it 1-0

Maybe, but I can't get mad about a pitch that barely touches a sliver of the corner being called a ball.

[Soul]

Couldn’t let Imanaga go one more inning?  He only had 87 pitches.

[Crusader]

Feels like just about every missed call this game has gone against the Cubs.

[Irrelevant Dude]

What's with the quick hook on Leiter lately?

I'd be fine with it being a ball if it hadn't been called a strike a half dozen times in this game

It’s good for my heart I can tell you that.

Trying to save him for max amount of games possible per week, so he only gets X amount of pitches to get 3 outs 🤷‍♂️

[Irrelevant Dude]

Nasty stuff from Almonte.
