[Derwood]

9-3 in last 12. 87 runs in that span

[Papa Cub]

6 errors - who cares…..take the win! The Cubs are hitting again! With RISP!! 

[mk49]

Are we good again?  Or, only against the Mets?

[chibears55]

Keep finding ways to win...

The Reds are the worst

Dansby says there’s a non-zero chance PCA’s bunt was intentional.

[NorthsideAvenger]

Winning both games of the DH is always fun. And I am glad to see Dansby is getting hot.

they are fake rallying hard right now. Single, walk, walk. Bases loaded, one out

[Derwood]

Welp, actual fake rally. They hit into a game ending double play

yep, the worst. They just roll over and die any time they see navy/yellow or whatever the brewers dumb colors are

[Outshined_One]

Can we play the Mets all the time? That was fun.

[NorthsideAvenger]

Mike Daddino should be fun to listen to.

Logan Webb has not been good lately

I'm not sure what the Giants starting pitcher has to do with either the Cubs or the Mets. LOL.

Also, wish we had Logan Webb instead.

Teams with a +4 are 35-0 this season. About to be 35-1

Throw in those 6 errors and it’s a wash.

I get that, but star power matters when the games matter.  Those are the guys that show up in October. 

I don't think "great hitters hit better than average hitters in the playoffs" is much of a take since great hitters hit much better than average hitters in the regular season too.

[Stratos]

I know they like Shota throwing his FB up in the zone because it has a lot of ride, but have they considered throwing it down in the zone?  Like low and away?  Like....just try it for a couple starts???  The old pitching adage "keep the ball down" might not be the worst idea here.

If hitters are teeing off on the high fastballs and it's inducing a ton of flyballs why the heck are you still doing it?

[Stratos]

Bregman has hit some hard flyballs into the OF this series, that's kind of encouraging?

[Butch Gernant]

I believe Bregman is a lifetime .271 hitter. He isnt a superstar.
