Cardinals (Mikolas) vs Cubs (Rea): 7/4/25, 1:20pm

[731.4life]

I think it's selfish Mikolas is in the game in the 6th.

Cardinals last played Wednesday afternoon (Cubs played two full games since that time), Sonny Gray went 6.2 innings on Wednesday. They were off yesterday and will be off Monday.

FWIW I believe tomorrow is a bullpen game for them.  But yeah that is a huge lack of usage...maybe they'll be rusty and it will backfire for them.

It’s just so weird for us to be the first team to go to the bullpen in this game. 

[Derwood]

Back to back beauties from Horton and Rea. Gotta love them stepping up

That what thought, I guess NY doesn't do tie to the runner

[UMFan83]

Ho hum another 10 run game for the Cubs offense.  That was a blast by Dansby.  Thank you PCA for not stealing 2nd which we know would have prevented that.

Most Dansby homer with a man on base ever. It wasn’t RISP lol.

I thought for certain I'd see the dong gif somewhere in this thread

Swanson joins the HR barrage, that double digits for runs.

7 bombs let get another one

[Cubs206]

I love how the little graphic said 22% chance of a hit and Dansby homers. 
 

7 homers today, you love to see it especially against the Cards. But save some tomorrow too when I go. 

[JHBulls]

History made. 

[UMFan83]

HR #3 for Busch amazing.  Off a lefty too

[Eeyore]

Boosh!

[Derwood]

Make it 8

[PeanutPunch33]

This is INSANE

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Fun game, but I feel kinda bad for the three fans in the bleachers who haven’t gotten a home run ball.

[Connor McConnor]

Holy crap.  I love killing the Cardinals.  Love it!!

[chibears55]

Busch with number 3...   love it

8 for the Cubs a franchise record in a game, I want 2 more now for 10
