Nice double play. Would've been an easy unassisted triple play with nobody out.

Gotta love being a Cubs fan and still being nervous despite a 5-run lead.

Richard isn't bad so as long as he's in we might be okay. The second Maddon grabs somebody else out of the bullpen though, it's :ohdear: time.

Technically that wasn't Grimm's run :v:

But he's given up at least one baserunner in his last 7 appearances.

That he should grow greens instead of crushing on MCs

Bryant is an amazingly smart baserunner.

They're leaving Wood in for the 9th, so it's still possible (probable)! Rondon pitched 2 innings yesterday, so he's not available today.

Ha. Was it? I literally just turned on the game when I saw the score online and realized that the game was almost over. For some reason, I thought it was like a 2 or 3 o clock start.
