This is the worst umpiring I’ve seen all season -
This umpire is terrible
-
What’s the prognosis on Gausman?
-
They’ll send him to Iowa for some random scrap heap guy they pick up who was good in 2019
-
This is PCA’s chance to sew up the MVP award by coming in to pitch.
-
Colin Rea game 1 starter incoming
-
Amaya is suddenly a strikeout machine that can’t challenge pitches
-
Appreciate the Cubs responding to my complaining about blowing scoring chances by not creating scoring chances
-
Key for game 3: Don’t hit 2 HRs in the 1st inning
-
Shocker
-
I’m sure that won’t come back to bite us against a team that hits a ton of HRs
-
Last I checked we were 28th in MLB at conversion rate in those situations. Something like 25 or so runs less than the 15th place team.
-
Please tell me I’m not the only one that the lack of success with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs drives absolutely batshit crazy.
-
I think its funny that Busch hit a fly ball that only would have been a HR in Houston (shortest LF porch) and another that only would have been a HR at Yankee Stadium (shortest RF porch)
-
Yeah, the current owner of the trophy retains the Cup in the event of a tie. I mostly joke when I bring up the Crosstown Cup because I haven’t seen anyone talk about it or give it out on the field for a few years. But technically the Cubs have held it since 2023
-
Ok it was worth sitting through some crappy moments and then some tense moments. 1 win in the next 2 games secures us the Crosstown Cup for another season
-
Will be interesting to see how this inning revolves around Owen Miller hitting 4th. I don’t know much about him but his big league track record as a hitter is…not good
-
Relievers just refusing to throw strikes tonight.
-
True maybe PCA should try to get hit again
-
Glad they got the clutch hit and were still playing but repeated failures with runners on 3rd and less than 2 outs yet again tonight. 2-3-4 up for the White Sox now. Hope it wasn’t a missed opportunity.
-
Anyone but Happ (please be a reverse jinx)
-
Of course Busch just misses 2 homers in a 1 run game
-
He has to face 3 total batters, meaning he didn't have to face Bennitendi, but he ended up having to because Craig had no one up and throwing even though the alphabet guy was all over the place
-
If a reliever closes the previous inning, he does not have to face 3 batters He could have been pulled at any point and besides no one was even warming up so even if there was a 3 batter minimum in effect Craig had no thoughts of removing him until it was way too late.
-
Cubs have had a runner in scoring position in 7 of their 8 innings, and have only scored in 2 of those innings (on solo HRs and an infield single and error)
