Baseball /n./ - A North American sport whose sole purpose is to destroy the spirits of the citizens of the Northern half of Chicago, USA.

Even when we hit the ball well its right to them.
-
because they are playing beyond terrible. 3 baserunners, impatient hitting against a pitcher with a 1.60+ WHIP this season. Teams usually play pretty terribly in a good amount of the games they lose. It's the nature of baseball. There is no excuse for some of the things they have done tonight. Leadoff walk followed by Soto swinging at the second pitch almost at his shoes and grounding into a DP is one example.

Look, nobody said we're totally gonna win this game, Cubs are awesomest, gonna win the next 8 world serieses. They were just pointing out that you and others were being spazzes saying the season was over because of this game, and that there's no way we could possibly come back from an insurmountable 4 run deficit with only 7 innings to go!! Considering your track record on calling games over, smart money probably is still on the Cubs winning the game. But that's cool, you can crow about us drinking cubbie kool aid and how you knew this game was over and the team doesn't care/is complacent/went out partying/is too young/inexperienced/whatever cliche you want to use to say they won't win because of the uniform they're wearing. And hopefully there'll be a few game threads the rest of the year where people like me aren't here to call you out on your crap. Thanks for posting this so I didn't have to. Who the heck cares, I am being wildly irrational right now, but I know that 20 minutes after the game is over, I will start to think normally again. Game threads are a forum for irrational thought. If you don't like irrational thoughts and want to discuss the game, that's fine just gloss over the bad posts.

Actually if the Cubs go 3-2 the Brewers have to win out to tie
-
I wonder how many people are ignoring me today
-
9 more outs to score 4 runs. Of course the Cards don't score. I hate my life
-
This is just pathetic. What the hell. Why are the baseball gods doing this to us
-
I can't believe this is happening. I want to slap myself to see if I'm sleeping
-
With Theriot, Lilly, Soriano due up?
-
The Cubs aren't batting
-
Unbelievable. The good news is that Marquis and Trachsel pitch the next 2 games
-
Cubs will be tied going into the last series of the season
-
What next? This is worse than the Bears game last Sunday
-
The Cubs had a full day off to think about the choking history of this team and now they are doing it.
-
Seriously, Willis has walked the leadoff hitter the last 2 innings, and Soto swings at a ball early in the count. Pathetic
-
OK WE ALL LOVE SOTO BUT HE NEEDS TO SIT FOR THAT
-
1 hit ball through 4+?
-
Time for a Soto blast
-
Weeks with a leadoff homer
-
Complacency. 3 up w/ 6 to go. "We got this in the bag." Let's see how they fight back tomorrow when its (most likely) 2 up w/ 5 to go. If indeed they're playing poorly because they're complacent, that falls on Lou and nobody else. I doubt that the Cubs are thinking that way. First of all, this knows it has had to fight for everything this year. Second of all, the Cubs are smart enough to know that clinching earlier gives them a chance to not only set up their rotation, but to get complacient the last 2-3 games of the season.

Might as well be the way they are hitting Willis
