Is Rea done for the evening? Similar to his last start. Only 65 or so pitches thru 5. But 3rd time through the lineup. He is pitching well. Righty leads off next inning. So not sure they go to Milner right away. 

I'd be surprised a little, if Rea doesn't come back.

Pretty solid outing for Rea tonight.

[mk49]

Yeah, Rea was very decent.

Basically did what I expected. 2 of the next 3 batters are lefty. So Milner. Interesting that none of the people who criticize Counsell spoke up on this. They would rather wait until whatever decision he makes doesn’t work so they can suggest they wouldn’t have made that decision.

Lots of WTP for the A's

He's basically been Mr. Cromulent this season.

[mk49]

And, Milner has been pitching very well.

I mean we know the result, but I'd say Counsell made the right decision today.  I don't usually criticize Counsell, though.

I agree. But the problem now is, who pitches the rest of the game.

Thielbar and Palencia, I would guess.  If the Cubs score more, maybe, Thornton.

[Soul]

That ball was crushed.

[Hunter]

meh

 

[Gjfificifjdej]

Thielbar you pitch like a horsefeathers dumbass

[chibears55]

Lol... of course they give up the lead late

🙄

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Nice job Caleb 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Im so horsefeathers disgusted 

[chibears55]

Good job Thielbar,  thanks for your effort 🙄

[JHBulls]

Tie game, but at least Craig Counsell saved Rea’s life by removing him from the game when he did. 

[Papa Cub]

Honestly - I am not even phased. They just look for ways to blow games anymore. Just what they do - I just expect them to lose anymore 

[mk49]

Maton should be good enough with 2 outs.  Thielbar hasn't been as good as last year, though.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Maton, lol

[javy knows my name]

This team hates us

Boog: “At the conclusion of the game, be sure to listen to Tom Ricketts on Anthony Rizzo and David Ross’ podcast reminiscing about when he used to be a good owner.”

Don’t gaslight me Boog!

[UMFan83]

I think we’ve hit fun bad territory because there’s a tiny part of me that wants Maton to completely implode for all the vitriol it would cause
