Great start, no hangover affect but I doubt any of these guys really poured it on last night. 

Fuk the weather, fuk MLB, just go play and win 3 fukn ballgames 😅😅😅

Dansby Swanson: Andele! Andele!

Michael Busch: This is as fast as I go!

Holmes haven't given up any runs yet but I'm not sure this performance is reassuring at all after the last couple of rough starts.

Hes giving up baserunners in every inning so far, eventually it may cost him

BB is still a problem.

[Rcal10]

I am not very confident in Holmes. He walks too many people and throws too many pitches. He frustrates me.

Wasn't going get runner at first but, the errant throw was costly.  Still put the blame on Holmes, dude has not been able to throw strikes.

I love JD. "Get out of the way 32, we're trying to see the play!"

Steal Pete. You’re still chasing 11 war.

Off topic but is anyone in Chicagoland area having trouble with CHSN, im being told by Xfinity that CHSN is having issues not them.

Wasn't able to watch Blackhawks last night and its still not working

This game about to be tied soon

horsefeathers hell Holmes

Maybe he should just go back to being a high leverage reliever

[abuck1220]

a few weeks ago, holmes would have been my slam dunk game 1 starter. now i think i want him to be a reliever.

It's already 4-3 Boston unfortunately

[Rcal10]

This is an interesting move. Maybe Counsell doesn’t care about home field🤷 if they lose the firdt one they might as well lose them all. Maybe then get Atlanta and don’t have to fly across the entire country to play a playoff game.

[abuck1220]

lol two horsefeathers pitches. 

[squally1313]

i'm not watching, was the anthony double off the monster? savant has xBA at .020

[Rex Buckingham]

Predictable, Thielbar 

[UMFan83]

Shocker

The walks earlier in the game were bad but I can't get too upset about him getting BABIPed this inning.  A ground ball where guys weren't and then a stadium induced double.

[mk49]

Yeah, I feel more comfortable with guys other than Holmes starting in the WC, based on how they've been pitching.

[mk49]

Sucks.
