It won't matter. He's not going more that 4 or 5 innings regardless of how he's pitching. -
Pretty sure Mariano Rivera is the record holder with a lot more than 16 consecutive innings.
-
Wait, come on Cubs offense don't start swinging for the fences before Dex hit one out. Just get on base and make horsefeathers happen.
-
Dammit Rizzo should have came off the bag and tag him
-
He should have started the game with a Grand Slam. I'm pretty sure if he had done that, the Indians would have unconditionally surrendered and we'd be world champions already. :D One.More.Win. :flythew: Yes they would have ran off the field in fear, convinced that the Cubs are a bunch of wizards that can bend the rules of baseball.
-
Damn. Would have been so amazing if he was rewarded with a Zo RBI single. Come on Kyle you got this
-
Yep Schwarber with an IF hit and stolen base 6 months after tearing up his knee
-
Come on Kris don't press
-
Yep Schwarber infield hit 6 months after tearing his knee up
-
Guys, we are leading a baseball where winning will win the World Series
-
DONG PRTY
-
AHHHHHHH
-
Gotta remind myself not to flip out if the Cubs don't score in the first inning
-
I really don't care/cross that bridge when we come to it.
-
Happy Birthday!
-
*Fowler starts out the game with a groundout* We're horsefeathering screwed, I can't believe we aren't going to win!
-
Haha Frank Thomas says this would be the biggest championship in Chicago history if the Cubs win rivaling only the 85 Bears. I'm sure Sox fans love the Big Hurt saying that even if they know it's true.
-
Definitely did that earlier
-
Probably Billy Williams or maybe Fergie. But Billy is around more and is the most visible of the old timers.

My grandfather is 87 and nearly died of cancer last year to the point where they were discussing hospice. Somehow he pulled through and is doing well. He told me tonight with emotion in his voice that he is happy he stuck around to see the Cubs in the World Series because the last time they were in it he was in a German work camp and had no idea about the Cubs or baseball. Really hope he gets to see us win
-
The dichotomy between the unshakeable perception that Hendricks is on the verge of complete failure and also that he's a Greg Maddux clone every time he does well is hilarious. The meatball in me took a long time to get past that. Now I'm completely confident with him on the mound.
-
I am remaining heavily guarded....like David said, I'm trying to tell myself that a win doesnt mean world series champs. if i start day dreaming about the celebration and horsefeathers it sets me up for an even more painful emotional kick in the balls if the unthinkable happens. I'm pretty sure that's not gonna happen though, have a decently good feeling.
-
Going back to Kluber's last start to make me feel better about tonight. Yes he had good results but I forgot how many good ABs we had. Here are some of the end results of ABs: Double Single Fly ball to deep CF Lineout Single Walk HBP Fly ball to deep CF Single Fly ball to deep LCF Fly ball to deep RF Double 12 instances of either very good contact off Kluber or a positive result (hit, walk, hbp) in 6 innings. If we do that tonight with average luck we put up 3-4 runs.
-
I'm not counting hours until the game, I'm counting hours until we're World Champs. With a conservative estimate of 11 PM end time, we are less than 8 hours from ending the drought officially.

Roll Call: Who is going to be in Chicago for the World Series?
UMFan83 replied to Clem Fandango's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I'm going down there at some point. If the bars are impossible to get into, I'll sit in my car with my buddies watching the game on my phone or something. But I have to be nearby for the end of the game.
