Those tootblans are all the more annoying now

[Cubbies1996]

Should’ve been a 5 or so run lead but due to the idiotic baserunning we’ve got ourselves a game! Surely it won’t cost the Cubs

[Soul]

Take that raaar!

[Jason Ross]

Not sure what the record for combined pick offs in a game is, but feels like this game wants a run at the record.

It’s not a good half inning. We literally did not make an out at the plate and only scored 3 runs. 

dont get me wrong the 3 runs are nice but that doesn’t make the result of the inning acceptable 

Right...  nothing they could do about Kelly, the ball just bounced back perfectly for them but the 2 pickoffs hurt cause they had both Happ and Tucker coming up with an opportunity to put up more.

Now it sucks more cause it a 1 run game

[JHBulls]

We haven’t seen pink cap guy much this year. But at least greasy hair dude is in the house. 

[Jason Ross]

The baserunning gaffes are getting the attention, but the send for Busch on Kelly's first double and Kelly's second double there are really good baserunning plays. 

[UMFan83]

What a stupid AB by our RISP king

Did they show a replay of the checked swing? Seems like those are going not in the Cubs favor lately.

I didn’t see a replay but that looked like a swing to me live.

Yep, feels like one of those games where they blew an opportunity to add on a bunch of runs early and then cant do anything the rest of game.   Just hope Boyd and the bullpen can just hold them the rest of way

Matt Boyd is impressive. I want Jed to find us a Boyd/Shota tier pitcher this month.

I feel like we’ve said this too often the last 5-6 weeks.

horsefeathers hell Cleveland lol.

He is a good hitter.

[profisme]

I’m liking Dansby going with the pitch outside. Bad luck on that last one but it will pay off if he keeps doing it. 

[BKHoo]

Great job Matthew. Do we think that’s it after 7 for him?

[UMFan83]
