    Crew should go back to trying to cheat/steal signs. Yelich was a much better hitter in those days.

    Morel with another nice AB to lead off the game. Started out down 1-2, took a couple of balls, fouled off a couple of pitches and then took a BB. Got to 2nd on a single by Willy. Stole 3rd and scored on a wild throw by the catcher.

    Former Bear Marion Barber found dead in his apartment earlier today. No cause of death was released. He had some mental problems late in life, maybe CTE related. Link

    They also had the first two batters on base in the 9th. Abreu is on first, but TLR doesn't pinch run....because, you know, you need his bat in the lineup for extras. Next batter hits ibnto 5-4 DP, with a really close forceout at second. Probably any player on the WS beats the throw to second.

    I read in another thread the Cubs were gonna win the division. Why are we writing the season off??

    Line drive in the scorebook - congrats Nelly!!

    That's a funky delivery by Swarmer.

    HoF WR Andre Reed says hello!

    To be fair, starting and inning with a man on 2nd immediately puts the "closer" in a precarious situation not his fault. As seen, some weak contact and a run can still score.

    They showed it on Sox telecast. Could've gone either way.

    Morel stellar ABs by the youngster!
  13. PackLandVA
    More stellar defense by the WS further emphasizes Ortega's sh!ttty approach his last AB.
  14. PackLandVA
    Thought that was a pretty bad AB by Ortega. Even though he took some good pitches for balls and worked the count full, I think his approach was off. He looked like he was swinging for the fences every time he swung at a pitch. Man on third and less than 2 outs, he's gotta be thinking contact. Put the ball in play and odds are they score, especially given the Sox less-than-stellar defense. Big disappointment.

    Let Stro go out for the 8th??
  16. PackLandVA
    And a horrible start for IU...yikes!!! First 5 batters reach and it's already 3-0 with nobody out yet.

    "Happ will make the catch. And the Cubs take game 1 of this series." -Len Kasper, May 2022 Nostalgic to hear!

    And can Simmons hit the ball on a fly out of the infield???? I've asked before, never got an answer, and have yet to see it happen.
  19. PackLandVA
    Is he "Dusty-like"?

    White Sox DFA Keuchel. If I read it correctly, they eat his $18.5 million for the remainder of the season unless they swing a trade or he's claimed. But it saves them to $20 million for next season since I don't believe he's vested.

    Starting a game thread in which the Cubs give up 20 runs is an embarrassment I’m unwilling to face again. I am, therefore, done as a game thread starter. Good night, and good luck.
  22. PackLandVA
    A win and you win the series. A loss and you split versus a rotten team. And it would probably mean the second of four consecutive losses because they don’t beat the Sox.
  23. PackLandVA
    Don't know why, but Morel reminds me of Junior Lake. Hope he's better than Lake.
  24. PackLandVA
    Kyle Hendricks - somehow not Greg Maddux. Unfortunately.
  25. PackLandVA
    Mercy. Excellent point! They can get swept at the Cell, but only lose two games instead of three. Very savvy of the Cubs.
