Well if Flexen can keep them scoreless the Cubs will have Hoerner on at 2B with Busch hitting and no Clase to deal with.

[Hot Sauce]

Stud play by Busch!

Ok let end this now so they dont have to burn up anymore relievers for tomorrow

Somehow, Austin Hedges and his 31 wRC+ this year is an improvement on his 20 wRC+ last year. 

Fun fact of the night.

More fun with Austin Hedges. 

Over his last 500 PA's he has a 39 wRC+. This is dating back to 2019. Somehow, he's so good defensively, that he's still been worth 3.5 fWAR over that span. 

I have a new favorite Fangraphs page.

Bunt the fake runner over to 3rd base and then a sac fly to the outfield to win it. Easy.

Got to win it now knowing Kwan will begin at 2nd in the 11, with Ramirez going to the plate.

Class A? Only one sport Clase could have played. 

[chibears55]

Didn't realize Clase only threw 7 pitches..lol

Come on Busch, just get him to third 

[731.4life]

I wonder if they will bunt here...

[Jason Ross]

Matt Shaw is gong to get the game winning hit, and I'm going to look real smart for my praise. 

Or he'll strikeout and I'll look real dumb.

[JHBulls]

Matthew, don’t suck! 

[Hot Sauce]

That’ll do!

[731.4life]

Good job boys!

[soccer10k]

[JHBulls]

I mean you were kind of wrong on both accounts haha. Not a strikeout but also not a hit.
