Going into this series I heard that the Brewers were pretty good at home and their starting pitching has pitched surprisingly well especially the guy yesterday and today. And I laughed it off but so far they've played mostly well at home and those 2 starters have shut our offense done. Grr
I figured when Lucroy bounced the throw to the wrong side of the plate there was no way they'd get him. Apparently Zobrist is shockingly slow. I kept waiting for him to appear in the frame of the camera shot and he just never showed up until a lot later than I expected
i think he was making fun of the cubs Yup. Along the lines of what rocket said, it's felt like for a while now that if the Cubs fall behind early then they're basically done for the rest of the game. I miss the team that scoffed at opposing team leads. To that point I'm looking back and in only 1 of our last 12 wins has the opponent scored first
Jesus the dude is at an elevated pitch count early the last thing you want to do is put the guy leading the league in steals on first due to a dropped 3rd strike
Most good teams play a long chunk of the season at .500. The Cubs have played 33-32 baseball over the last 65 games. Most likely they will go on another run at some point and everything will be good again
Wasn't anything that bad. Our first 2 batters walked, Rizzo GIDP and zobrist struck out looking. This bottom of the first has been a lot more infuriating. 3 SB, one on a non pitch without even a throw made
