Brewers (Priester) vs Cubs (Taillon): 10/8/25, 4:08pm

[CUBDOM4life]

Jake Bauers. Whoever the horsefeathers that is

[Caesar]

Lead will not hold unless they score more. It’s pretty obvious if you’re seeing the game. 

[profisme]

I have never hated a team as much as this year's Brewers team.  

[Irrelevant Dude]

So let's say optimistically that Kittredge survive the 8th.  How are we possibly going to get 2 innings out of a shaky Keller and the rest of the remaining pen?

[Papa Cub]

One big inning every game and then absolutely nada from this offense. Brewers literally own them.

A popup, on the shallowest part of the park, in the only area where the wind isn't screaming in.

Brewers.

Sadly puppy eyes, I think you’re right

[Max Power]

Let’s get some runs.

[BigSlick]

Hey remember 3 or 4 innings ago when Suzuki hit a lead off double and the cubs did nothing with it? That’s the only thing that matters now 

[Papa Cub]

Thielbar in the 8th and Keller 9th? 

[Irrelevant Dude]

2... more.... innings.

I feel like we're hanging off the edge of the cliff and down to 1 finger still gripping the ledge.

[Soul]

If they can’t add on even a single run in 8 effing innings to save the season, to hell with it.  Have a nice vacation.

[Caesar]

7 to 3 Cubs final score! So let it be written so let it be done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gflore34]

I'm fully expecting more very hit-able balls the Cubs will do jack-horsefeathers with this inning. 

[squally1313]

Just find a way to do this with a one run advantage and three extra outs. 

[squally1313]

This should be Turner.

Ok, so I should have said IMO pacific time is the best time for people who love live sports and don’t stay up until midnight. I am in Az, so I get half Pacific and half Mountain. I, personally, like pacific best. Allows me to calm down after Cubs games instead of watching them until 10PM and then trying to go to bed. Game ends at 8. Time to watch other tv and forget about the game. 

I don't understand or have any curiosity about Arizona so I don't know what time zone you decide to call yourselves right now. But having this game at 3 today instead of 2 and the WC series at 1 instead of 12 made a huge difference to me just lately.

Starting a regular season night game at 6 is so much better than 7 or 5 for so many reasons, too

Hyperbole much? I kid....you're right of course. Win this and move on, but as others have stated....4 runs probably won't win it. 

[Eeyore]

Ferguson was my favorite pitcher when I was a kid

No, it shouldn't.  You don't pull your best hitter when this game could come down to him batting in the bottom of the 9th.

[BKHoo]

Kyle it’s ok to have a big hit. 

[jorbloss]

would be a really nice surprise to not go 3 straight outs now

[Irrelevant Dude]

Here we go again.  Two chances to add on.

Eh. That’s what Ballesteros is for.
