Dude... I love Schwarber, but these have all been pitching duels. Dropping a ball that falls in your glove is pretty much the Apocalypse.



To be fair, other players also made errors and Heyward made a bad base running decision


Yes, but his was simply something you never see. IMU could have made that catch.

Well, then I should have been killed in 6th grade.

This is fine. If you start the good defense then when you have to pinch hit or double switch you end up with the shit defense at the end of the game and little flexibility. Joe knows whats up.

the cubs seem to thrive on the drama though. it's almost like they have to play this way...just needling us through a thick, nappy sweater. can't just use a sewing machine and cut through a team.

Nonsense, Schwarber will cost us a run or two and go 0-14 until he connects on a homerun(likely solo) the guy cant be in the lineup.

That's great we got the lead in the 8th like they did to us last game.

Cannot believe 4 errors and we won.

I haven't even watched the game yet. Not sure when I would have time to do it.

Please tell me tomorrow is a night game.

He’s bad. This narrative that he is a great base runner, well, I just don’t see it. But he got a hit today, at least.

WHAT A FUCKING WIN!

Pre 2016 these type of games we're on the other side.

Let's get this one more win tomorrow.

Baez and Rizzo pumped on that last out.

Rizzo post game shit on Dusty saying he didnt think they'd pitch to him. He made them pay.

MLB.com really did some research on this one:

This was the longest postseason no-hit bid by a pitcher against the Cubs since Strasburg held them hitless over 5 2/3 innings in Game 1 on Friday.

Some thoughts about yesterday's game. As hard as Maddon tried to fuck it up, the boys wouldn't let him. There is no way he should of pulled Q after Schwarber's error. I think he pitches them out of it, unlike Strop. For all the dumb ass Sox fans that say Q is average, you were proven wrong. Dude is legit. Q and Hendricks should be your 1 and 2 next season, and bump Lester to 3. Hopefully this was the last straw on Schwarber. Theo should realize it's time to make a move. He's the piece for adding a pitcher. Zobrist finally did something, after being bad for another 6 innings. I still believe Maddon should be fired for playing him, but so be it. I don't get why they moved Zo to left in the 9th, when the brought in Baez. Your strongest OF defense is Jay, Almora, and Heyward. There was no reason to take out Jay to put Zo in LF. Maddon has been way to loyal to Zo.

Really hope we avoid a rain out today. It would suck to have Strausburg throw game 4 now. It would put Hendricks and Lester back into play for the Cubs, but I think the Cubs would pound Tanner.

I like the Cubs chances seeing a pitcher for the second time in a week. Strasburg is so good, he may be the exception.

If a team having great starting pitching is the narrative, then all teams are scared of the Cubs.
