Cubs Reds Game 3

[chibears55]

Everyone focus on the draft thread..lol

Alcantara getting the start today on his birthday as the DH.

Pirates crushing the Brewers today, chance for Cubs to get 5 back, damn wish they could of won Friday

[chibears55]

Bregman with the big RBI single to get them on the board....

Maybe the 3 spot is where he belongs

[mk49]

It's the typical Bregman's popup that worked this time.

[chibears55]

Busch just missed one, double and 2 - 0 cubs...

Let's goooooo

I thought he got that one, damn.  I'll take an RBI double though

Me, too, but this year, Busch hit a lot of fly balls around the warning track.  I guess he has less power or slower bat speed than the last season?

[Eeyore]

Needed that good start to the game. I'm afraid that Boyd is going to give up a lot of gopher balls.

Glad the Reds had the infield in for Bergman. That allowed Bergmans ball to be a bloop double instead of an infield pop out. Good to see he ran the ball out.

I remember that White Sox series where he had like 3 of them die right in front of the wall.  It seems to me like bad luck more than anything. 

[PeanutPunch33]

Terrible.  He's clearly out 

[UMFan83]

that is a terrible call by New York. There was clearly air between the foot and base when the ball was in Busch's glove

[mk49]

The Brewers are losing.  14-2.

[Eeyore]

Boyd at Cincinnati

Swanson with the diving catch

[mk49]

A nice clean inning.

And even at the time - it seemed like a bad call by Francona so early in the game.

That was one of the worse throws I can ever remember Happ making. He's usually pretty accurate. 

[Papa Cub]

Boyd doesn’t have the best track record against the Reds in this ballpark 

[UMFan83]

Boyd getting rocked so far

Yeah, wayyyy offline 

[PeanutPunch33]

For whatever reason Boyd is just not good in this ballpark.  

[Papa Cub]

And here we go ……..Suarez the Cub killer 

[UMFan83]

Suarez continues to be a life long Cubs killer

[Andy]

That is not where Matthew Boyd wanted that ball

[JHBulls]

Well, this sucks.
