The Cubs just can't manufacture runs without HRs

In their defense, teams who out homer the other team in the playoffs are way up on the W-L record this playoffs. 

Granted, home runs usually beget runs scoring and runs begets wins so it's a self fulfilling prophecy...but if the Cubs can keep hitting home runs, there's at least a pathway to success with it.

We’re not scoring again are we?

Come on, Tuck. Get one big hit.

Going to go ahead and trust nico at the plate for the foreseeable future

We will if we can get to a Game 5.

[BearDown1223]

Bad read by Shaw. Should be on third. 

[Jason Ross]

Good to see Ashby coming out. The more we get to the pen the more I'm not sure what they do Saturday. 

Maybe they just start Miz. But I'm strangely a little okay with that considering how wild he can get in the first inning, especially.

Will also take that. 6 times on base in 4 games will work. 

Yep, all the bitchn about Shaw not hitting and he's at least been getting on base 

[DrCub]

5 out of 11 of the most Ks in the postseason are Cubs.  Yikes.

Haha. My thought as that ball was dropping was Javy would have been on third standing up.

I thought so too. Seems we are a station to station team in the playoffs. 

[muntjack]

Just let us relax, I'm begging you

[Hortonhearsawho]

Shaw not trying to steal was weird but he also should have been on third at least so we are not helping ourselves on the bases here. 

[DrCub]

Is it just me or does Tucker look like he’s bailing out of the box on every swing?
