It will not be surprising if the bottom completely falls out and they miss out on the postseason - not likely, but even if they make it in, what’re they going to do? Early out from what I see 

Yes it would be very surprising if they missed the playoffs. They have to lose out, which includes 3 against a Boston team that will be resting guys, and Arizona has to win out. It won’t happen.

[BKHoo]

Phillies lost. 

[Soul]

RISP. Time to fail.

[abuck1220]

nico better horsefeathers come through with at least his trademark 72 mph grounder to ss

[BKHoo]

Uh oh.  We have RISP. 

[abuck1220]

can’t believe he didn’t swing at that

So we have 2 unearned runs in 17 innings?!

What are we doing? 

Wind blowing in hard, they cant hit homeruns which is usually half their offense 

[UMFan83]

I’m so horsefeathers sick of the lack of situational hitting. horsefeathers hell

[Andy]

I assume the Cubs will get another hit with RISP at some point in the future. Whether that takes place in 2026 or not? Open question

[Andy]

We'll take some BABIP luck!

[Derwood]

That was the most Brewers-esque base hit I've ever seen

[s2obed]

About time. I was fully expecting a K there!

[mk49]

Yeah, take it!

[chibears55]

Lmao...  Swanson comes through with a broken bat single

New Ballgame

Ok finally

[abuck1220]

took a broken bat 70 mph bloop to break the RISP curse.
 

lol amaya, great at bat. 

[Brian707]

Swanson the anti Shaw

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

a HS baseball player sitting in the crowd would have a better chance than Amaya

Just trying to keep the bases unclogged in front of Pete.

Amaya never came back.  It’s the Ghost of Amaya.

Not arguing that - it “could” happen, but highly unlikely as I said. Right now the bats are looking like they did mid to late May and it’s a bit concerning. They won 10 straight (twice), but also lost 10 straight, so the way they’re playing in the peak part of the season looks like the team we watched in May is what I’m saying

Yes he does. At least field it. If he beats it out he beats it out. 

[Geographyhater8888]

I’ll take Bregman with 1 eye over Pedro right now

[Andy]

Was fun being tied for a minute and a half
