Braves (Elder) vs Cubs (Horton): 9/3/25, 6:40pm

[Hortonhearsawho]

How do you give up a home run to that scrub?

[Derwood]

Yeah, not great

[DYMNO]

Awful 

[Andy]

I know our bullpen's been taxed of late, but this version of Drew Pomeranz was clearly a risk for bad stuff to happen.

[Cubbies1996]

lol what a joke

[UMFan83]

Maybe score more than 1 run against a pitcher with an ERA near 6?

[chibears55]

Two ladies in blue behind the RH batter, I bet they haven't seen one pitch thrown, they've been yapping the whole game. 😅

[Papa Cub]

Horton - I’m sorry on behalf of Ben Brown and Pomeranz. 

[BigSlick]

Ben brown bad

Hindsight and all that

2 ER for Ben.  He didn't disappoint.  Well, I just felt sad saying this.

Mostly Ben Brown

I don’t care what the overall playoff picture is, this is a pathetic horsefeathers loss. 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Tried to get ahead and the ****** hitter got the exact pitch he was looking for. Nice swing.

Ben Brown is so upsetting to watch. He shows flashes on the occasional pitch but you can tell he isn’t putting in the effort or work required of a professional pitcher. Tough to have to cheer for such a poor quality person.

How is that guy still in the Show?? How many times does he have to show Counsell and the gang that he sucks? Where is my buddy that says “he’s learning the ropes?” lol They give him enough rope to hang himself every single time. Pomeranz giving up that homer was rough, but due to Brown’s runners it’s now a three to one game. Guy must have something on the Cubs to still be up and working a “bulk role” joke 

[Soul]

Entered the inning with a no hitter…

Are you seriously going in for the personal attack on a guy you know nothing about?

Did they call the game? Is it over? They lost?

Oh do share how you can tell that

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Expertly started Elder in fantasy knowing we rarely sweep anyone.

[BigSlick]

Lmao they can’t get out of the inning!

Can’t argue that - their bats were nonexistent tonight, but Brown and Pomeranz combo is a recipe for disaster. NOT hindsight and all - because Brown has been a liability nearly all season
