He’s throwing mid upper 90’s, he usually 100-102.

Are you even watching? He was 99-100 that entire inning?

[Outshined_One]

Never in doubt!

He had one pitch that was only 95 and way out of the strike zone.

Spectacular job Cubs. After a month of scuffling baseball I’m very happy to see you all back to form.

also big time props to Matt Shaw who struggled mightily, stuck with it, and has emerged as a real offensive force. You love to see it.

Didn’t think the Cubs had this in them. Great win.

What was the xBA of that Willlliam line drive?

[Connor McConnor]

3 game win streak seemed unattainable a few days ago.

Alright, now get the win tomorrow.  5 games back with the tiebreaker in hand, the division could still be in play.

I'm not letting myself buy a comeback yet, but at minimum I like the idea of playing the role of 2015 Cubs in a playoff series to the Brewers' version of that St. Louis team that might have peaked too early

I was told that we would be swept in this series

[Hortonhearsawho]

Palencia probably needs the day off tomorrow but he got the save so it's all good!

Yeah....still unlikely to come back from 5 down with 34 to play and no H2H games left, but it's possible.  It's much much more unlikely 7 down with 34 to play and no H2H games left.

[We Got The Whole 9]

My god, who gave the rainout speech this time lol

 

So freaking proud of how they responded after game 1

That's so horsefeathers annoying and incompetent.  Now does he even have enough time to heal before the playoffs or are we just getting this diminished version of him?

Even if they have a very remote shot, I’m very pleased to see this team have some fight in them. This was a team that just kept dropping series’s to bums. Thank god they are coming out of it.

Was the X ray machine broken? Did they X ray the wrong hand? WTF?? 

[Cubfanintheknow]

Here's hoping the Brewers have finally ran out of their magic pixie dusy.🍻

[Brian707]

That's about a 6 week healing time for Tucker? But he hurt it two months ago so ??
