I also don't understand how professional ballplayers can forget something as basic as 'Go with the pitch' if you're being pitches away. Stop pressing and stop trying to pull everything.
This has been one of those horsefeathers games and we've forgotten how to play baseball, so I'll be very surprised by any sort of fight in the bottom of the ninth.
It's not an issue if you score more than zero runs against Josh fricking Tomlin with the wind howling out. Absolutely inexcusable, especially in our return to World Series baseball at Wrigley.
I'm irrationally upset that the 2004 Red Sox won the World Series without even breaking a sweat to break their curse and it looks like we're going to have to struggle for it.
