Cubs (Boyd) vs Reds (Lodolo): 9/19/26, 5:40pm

[We Got The Whole 9]

So the Cubs have allowed 1/3 of Hayes' RBI now. How horsefeathers pitiful.

[Geographyhater8888]

K’Bryan horsefeathers Hayes now huh.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

And there's the lead to the 430 ops guy, right on schedule

Omg what the horsefeathers was that?  Little horsefeathers like that is going to have us playing in San Diego or Philly 

Butterfly effect and all but at least they would have scored that run anyway.

I mean his OPS is .430 not .000. gotta get a hit sometime. 

[Geographyhater8888]

Holding a 2 run lead? I don’t think so.

Whelp - going to be a true bullpen game tonight I see

[Derwood]

It's always the NPC's.

Always

[UMFan83]

431 OPS in 215 PA

.558 OPS in 148 PA
 

These 2 players have gotten the biggest hits of the series so far.  Meanwhile the MVP is 0-8 so far. Baseball is fun

If I remember correctly, Boy's opponent's OPS is over .900 with RISP.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

I can't even enjoy a homer anymore

[UMFan83]

Looking forward to that “Reds are Luck Merchants” tweet later today

edit: maybe not. Busch off a lefty

Yep, that what I was saying,  doesn't matter if starter holds them to 0 runs or 2 runs, if they dont have a good size lead by the time the bullpen comes in, its a toss up game. 

[chibears55]

Busch gets the lead back, that was a bomb

What did Pete’s walk percentage peak at this year? Can someone lmk

It peaked at .500 on March 28

edit: serious answer, besides the opening days of the season it peaked at .390 on July 25. In the 50 games since his OBP is .338 but his slugging percentage has skyrocketed. 

50 games is not a gigantic sample but maybe enough to give us some hints about his approach the last 2 months.

he looked really good. 

[mk49]

Maybe, Palencia is back.  At least, his velo is back.  Pitched well in the last 3 outings.

Yes

[chibears55]

Man I hope Palencia has found his 100 octane gasolina 😅😅

[UMFan83]

Pete 0 for his last 10.  Striking out a bit but hitting the ball solid so not super worried

Touched 101 a couple times and had full command on his pitches.
