At least Matt Shaw has made this game fun to watch

I went from "Of course the Cubs offense is going to turn it around and start hitting again" to "umm is this the real Cubs offense?"

Least runs per game in baseball over the past 2 months and its not showing a ton of signs of getting better.

When they only got 1 run when they had bases loaded no outs, i knew nothing changed for them. 

I think when they start scoring multiple runs in those situations again where they get first couple hitters on with no outs, then they may be back. 🤷‍♂️

Matt Shaw the only bat that been worth watching the whole second half

[UMFan83]

Trout walk off right?

[chibears55]

I was expecting Shaw to dive for that ball hit up the middle to Swanson 🤣🤣

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Soriano and the blue hummer for luck.

[UMFan83]

also im not one of those "the manager should go out and scream at the umpire" people in general but Craig should have at least had some words with the ump after Seiya's BS checked swing situation.  I have never seen an appeal to 1st with the 1st base ump saying no swing with the home plate ump overriding him.  That's at least worth a heated conversation imo.

[UMFan83]

Yep, we have no desire to score the rest of this game.

‘Bout time!

I knew Soriano and the blue hummer would work.

It wasn't an appeal though, HP ump was clearly pointing at Suzuki.

1B ump jumped the gun on that one

[DYMNO]

So grateful that Alex Cohen RUINED an otherwise beautiful moment between PCA and Turner.

[chibears55]

PCA probably should just start against RHers for a bit..

 

Maybe Turner should be the new hitting coach next season since all the guys love him 🤷‍♂️😏

[DYMNO]

I sure hope one is enough.

[JHBulls]

Who had PCA having more home runs than Kyle Tucker this year on their bingo card?

No one, unless they’re lying. 

[JHBulls]

Despite the injuries and struggles, Mike Trout still has the aura of one of the scariest hitters in baseball.
