Pirates (Skenes) vs Cubs (Holmes): 9/12/26, 1:20pm

[UMFan83]

It has been 35 games since the Cubs have gone 2 consecutive games without allowing a HR.  They've allowed a HR in 29 of those 35 games and 62 total HRs in those 35 games.

2 Webb changeups dead center in the strike zone.

[javy knows my name]

What if Michael Busch delivered avg production for a 1B

[Geographyhater8888]

Only 71 pitches? Damn. 

[Papa Cub]

Skenes going for a complete game?

Those 2 double plays really killed momentum and kept his pitch count down.  Both came with 0 outs and potential high stress innings

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

They're seriously gonna let him throw a complete game. Jesus Christ

[abuck1220]

if they can somehow scratch across a run they should be able to get skenes out of the game by the 11th inning. 

[chibears55]

Cubs getting 3 this inning...

[Rex Buckingham]

nice of them to take out Skenes... and nice to see Pedro have a good game

[chibears55]

Taylor needed to at least get him to 3rd

[We Got The Whole 9]

Come on Pete, hasn't been a good day at the plate, time for redemption 

 

[Geographyhater8888]

Here’s a spit ball idea, pinch hit Suzuki for Taylor there. 

[chibears55]

Kinda not a good thing when ya gotta pinch hit for your 3 and 4 hitter (Busch, Happ)

🙄😐

[We Got The Whole 9]

Strong PA Shaw 

[chibears55]

New ball game... bases loaded walk

[We Got The Whole 9]

Ok who's gonna close this horsefeathers?

[Geographyhater8888]

What the horsefeathers is that Pirates manager thinking? 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

The hell is going on here

[chibears55]

Way to take one Nico...

Cubs lead

[Derwood]

Soto looks like he's auditioning for the Cubs pen

[ILMindState]

Matt coming through on Kirkiversary

[Papa Cub]
