I honestly can’t remember the last time the Cubs swept a double header. Anyone know?

They just said 2021 but that doesn't seem right.

A DH sweep?! When was the last one?

Great outing by Jamo after the first 2 innings. Timely hits.. took advantage of a bad ball call to Caissie and a huge throw by Castro!

I know it's become common to sarcastically reference only after losses, but the playoff odds are still quite good!

[Outshined_One]

Oddly enough, I feel like the Brewers would have swept the DH yesterday if Game 2 hadn't been postponed.

Awesome day today.

Hmmm maybe just maybe

Big sweep today, hopefully a good sign for things to come.

Maybe keep Tucker on bench tomorrow too 😅

I think they should keep Tucker on the bench until Friday . Let him get back on the field while on the road .

lol imaging the thoughts running through Kyle tuckers head right now. 

Sometimes moves like this can ignite a team a bit, like i said earlier, I'd just sit him the whole series and see how it plays out.

If anything he comes back this weekend refresh and ready to go

The lanky dork tomorrow who got roughed up by the reds in his first start after an IL visit and then Shota to get to five games back where we have the tiebreaker?

Makes sense.  Hopefully, it happens.

Maybe the rain saved them again . I wonder who gave the speech this time

Did they do 7 inning DHs in 2021? Thought it was only 2020

[Donzo]

7 relievers pitched today- kinda like a bullpen day.

Rogers and Pomeranz are the only ones who pitched yesterday and today, so the bullpen is OK for tomorrow. Still would be nice if Rea and Brown could take care of it.

I think so too, and probably another blow out.

Maybe with everyone still in the clubhouse after that first game, players spoke up and horsefeathers got aired out..

Who knows

Man I wish we somehow won the first game Monday. Imagine how hyped wed be knowing we cliched the tiebreaker and had a chance to pull within 3 or 5 games if we swept or split the rest

You know what I’d do with a million dollars? Two wins at the same time

horsefeathers yeah 

[UMFan83]

Reds up 4-1 over the Angels so we’ll only gain 0.5 over them. I think we stay 6 up in the loss column with 36 to play.

Yes. Well done Owen. 

Kid ain't scared....looked confident and powerful today. If Tuck comes back tomorrow, I'd hope Owen could DH and sit Suzuki for a game

The Reds are only 17%  that doesn't feel right

Funny of all the times I’ve thought about muting you, who would have thought it would have ultimately been due to repeated Michigan comments in Cubs game threads?  
 

You see that 5 star RB we got today?
