guy with an 88% sb success rate singles to start the inning and never tries to steal against the sidearm-y righty pitcher. come on. 

More or less what I was screaming the entirety of Dansby and Reese's ABs. It's a one run game, how about making it so it's tied on a single.

Moderately comforting to see Yelich just stand there and look at a strike to confirm it's not just Cubs hitters who do it.

9 baserunners today and 1 run, that's suboptimal. 

Yea I normally dont give Counsell shitt, but I have zero idea what his thinking was today. 

3 game win streak against the team your chasing, mostly cause of good pitching and riding 2 young hot bats, so what does he do? bench the 2 bats that been in the middle of everything positive in those 3 games.

Way to kill momentum 

[Tryptamine]

Time to pull Shota

[Cubbies1996]

Props to Shota. Get the man some runs now

[chibears55]

Got the 7 good innings out of Imanaga, too bad Counsell decided to bench his offense today.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Just a bit outside, Bob

[Tryptamine]

Shota now has a sub 1 WHIP in his MLB career.

guess they did have a lefty available, just saving it for the L-L-R-L part of the lineup

Fools,  it doesn't matter what hand they throw with against the top of this lineup. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

It's amazing that we didnt bench Busch and Seiya 

 

Please bring in the guy who took this giy deep last night.

[Cubbies1996]

If PCA gets up I hope to see Shaw hit for him

[Cubbies1996]

And terrible awareness by Busch!! Great job

[chibears55]

Lmao, was just typing K or DP for Tucker

[UMFan83]

brutal

[We Got The Whole 9]

horsefeathers idiot. That ball wasnt even hit well. 76 EV. No excuse to be doubled off on that.

[chibears55]

SMDH

[UMFan83]

oh look Seiya takes a strike 3 on the inside corner.  that never happens

[PeanutPunch33]

yikes 

[We Got The Whole 9]

I cant take Seiya right now. Just go cry about all the good calls that are being levied against you.

[UMFan83]

Well at least once we get past PCA we're past the brutal top of the order so we could have a chance to get another run in the last 2 innings.

And like 90% of the time, it's off the inside corner...but it gets called anyway.

[sweetpeteman]

They need to Willie Mays Hayes him and make him do push ups every time he strikes out looking.

[Cubbies1996]

Cubs are going to waste another elite start by Shota

[Geographyhater8888]

I think Tucker needs another 3 days off.
