5/7 Cubs (Shota) vs. Padres (Vasquez) 6:40 PM CT

[Andy]

Would be a terrific time for Dansby to make it back to back games with a homer

[soccer10k]

Well at least they got the 1.

[UMFan83]

Sucks they couldnt do more with 1st and 3rd and 0 outs but I'll take the run.  We've hit decently tonight....baserunners in 7 of the 8 innings so far, just bad sequencing to only have 2 runs scored.

[JHBulls]

Ridiculous. WOW!

[abuck1220]

need to make that play if you’re gonna hit .210 my dude.

[BKHoo]

Our bullpen requires miracle defense. 

[UMFan83]

This is Neris' 15th appearance this year.  He's only successfully kept a runner from getting on base in 1 of those 15 appearances.

Edit: He's now allowed 2+ baserunners in 7 of his 15 appearances despite never pitching more than 1 IP in any appearance this year.

One pitch. One home run. Easy.

For reference, take a look at Ian Happ

[Rex Buckingham]

welp, either we walk it off or we get another disappointing end where the bullpen just can't hang on

[squally1313]

PCA walkoff, let’s go 

[CubinNY]

Boy that Padres manager is a lump of mayonnaise 

[UMFan83]

Busch, Amaya, PCA.  Please just swing for the fences or something lol.  I can't deal with fake baseball tonight.

[CubinNY]

Yeah baby

[squally1313]

Man so close, let’s gooooooo

[UMFan83]

[Randall Simon]

Mike finally caught up to a high FB!!!

[JHBulls]

AH, FFS!!!

I step away for a minute and my prediction comes true.

[Thusly Boned]

Busch doesn't like rain apparently

[Derwood]

That's why you're not sending Busch down

[UMFan83]

First walk off victory since Morel's 3 run bomb against the White Sox last August.

Since then, the Cubs have been walked off a whopping 9 different times by opponents.
