Go scubbies

 

[jellyfish10]

As a lifelong Cubs fan I am always nervous. Helluvan inning tho.

 

[like-woahh]

great inning, but the way the ball is flying out of the park tonight, no lead is safe.

Yeah man, it's just one of those nights. Arrieta has really been struggling with that hard slider, his money pitch.

 

[Err.]

meh that pitch to Heyward was off the plate.. Heyward just went out and got it.

 

[UNIowaHawk]

Agreed. It wasn't a bad pitch. Well off the plate. That being said he called it a strike on Montero the past inning before calling it a ball on the next pitch.

 

[anon_snp6dc585nnj4]

HAHAHAHA wainwright

 

[jellyfish10]

Trevor V Holiday is scary. 3 hrs in 12 abs and a boot and now Heyward. Life as a Cubs fan.

 

[anon_snp6dc585nnj4]

Russell's injury huge right there

Cards win game 4 and 5, cubs win game 6, cards win the series in 7.

Personally, I blame Obama

It is a 5 game series....

 

[bagdropper]

That was funny...

I'm drunk but please go home you're high

 

[jellyfish10]

PS=heart attack.

PS=heart attack.

Looked awesome that inning. Dude has no control but when he is on he is unhittiable. 3 outs baby!

 

[SWIowahawks]

The Cubs now hold the record for most HRs in a postseason game with 6.

 

[jellyfish10]

Pha-Whew.

[bagdropper]

It's Lackey tomorrow I'd think for St. Louis. I wonder if Lester is in play. If I were the Cubs, I'd still go Hammel...there's no need at all to go Lester.

Hammel tomorrow? Facepalm.jpeg

 

[JWolf74]

If you'd have told me the Cards would score 6 runs, 4 of them off Arietta, and still lose, I'd have told you you were high. Rough night. Hopefully the Redbirds bring some pitchers tomorrow night.

 

[lucas80]

Hammel tomorrow? Facepalm.jpeg

Tomorrow comes tomorrow. Today is a W.

 

[ihawk in FWB]

Go Cubs go!

 

[Chewback]

Keep politics out or GTFO.

Whoa! Howya gonna have Cubs/Cards without politics?

 

[Chewback]

It is a 5 game series....

Forget it. He's on a roll.

It's Lackey tomorrow I'd think for St. Louis. I wonder if Lester is in play. If I were the Cubs, I'd still go Hammel...there's no need at all to go Lester.

Madden is solid on Hammel, which I actually agree with if it's a choice between taking a chance winning another Lester/Lackey battle or Lester/Lynn in St. Louis. I'd rather take a chance on Hammel at home than Hammel or Hendricks in a game 5 in St. Louis.

 

[hansenhawk]

haha, i knew that, really I did.

 

[LuteHawk]

Joe Maddon has got enough power in his lineup that he
will not need Hammel to pitch a shutout. With Bryant and
Rizzo returning to their home run swing tonight, there will
be partners for Schwarber, Soler, Castro in the offense.

I do not think this series ever gets back to St. Louis. Their
pitching staff is a mess. Cubs will win tomorrow and rest
up for the Mets.

[CuttyDoesIt]

Lets get it started. these early start times suck as a west coast cub fan!

 

[IACub]

Sucks here too if you can't get off early...

 

[IACub]

That started poorly.

 

[jellyfish10]

Exhibit A why I was nervous for Hammel to start.

 

[anon_snp6dc585nnj4]

Hammel has no biz throwing in this series

 

[ihawk in FWB]

I wonder where Hammel will play next year.

 

[CuttyDoesIt]

Is Lackey gonna yell at the ump after every "close" ball that goes against him
