PCA gonna PCA.

[UMFan83]

Of course the Rockies managed to get Arcia into a game before the end of the series. 

[gflore34]

Well alright, Cubs giving the Rockies some of their own medicine, soft stuff away, trying to pull, 6-4-3.

[BKHoo]

What are Shaw’s numbers since called back up? They have to be very good.

Sure glad they won't have to face Rockies pitching again for awhile 🙄

[chibears55]

Cameraman had me thinking that was gonna be gone...

Boog cracked me up making it like Happ made a great catch...lol

[Nolansomebody]

Wind has been so lucky tonight

[gflore34]

Time to put up a crooked number on these clowns.

So frustrating that we thought we were going to pound these clowns and these have all been really competitive games

[gflore34]

I give up, Rockies have the best pitching staff in baseball, their record, pitching numbers are an illusion.

[UMFan83]

I’d say we’re just going into a bit of a hitting slump but we hit so well in Cincinnati and the Rockies have the worst ERA in baseball. I know the conditions have made it more of a pitchers park but still

[Geographyhater8888]

Cubs got a raw deal with Maddux, Glavine, and Smoltz in back to back to back games.

We have 9 runs in 26.2 innings versus them. 

[Derwood]

Boog jinxed us with that early stat about the team's success when they don't hit the ball on the ground. We've hit everything on the ground ever since

They certainly have all turned into Cy young’s for sure this series 

[gflore34]

At least the horsefeathers Reds lost.

[UMFan83]

Assuming we don’t score a bunch of runs are we throwing Palencia out there for a 3rd day in a row or going somewhere else?

can’t believe we might have to consider using Palencia 3 days in a row against the Rockies. That’s baseball for ya I guess. 

[chibears55]

Outside of the weather being a factor, Cubs haven't been walking much this series.

So, they're not getting those extra baserunners, nor are they doing well with RISP.

[JHBulls]

This might be the shittest sweep of all time if they pull it off.

Palencia didn’t pitch yesterday. 

[PeanutPunch33]

Rockies have played us tough.  That win against the Yankees has them vibing lol 

[UMFan83]

Rockies have a 2.89 team ERA this series

Good call. Figured he did because it went 11 but I guess it would have been 3 in a row for him yesterday. 3 out of 4 today
