Take a slightly shorter lead and get a running start to second, boom easy stolen base. I just don't get it.

All the bunting bullshit is doing nothing to help the Dodgers offense actually score runs sooooooo

I think Lester's reputation for being unable to throw to first has made him a better pitcher this season. Ross led the league in pickoffs and the Cubs' infield defense is so good they can field bunts all day.

Thank god he's not pitching again, they'd have to start a reliever to bench him for a while.

I'm really not comfortable with a possible two innings from Chapman. It seems like any time you use him in something other than a single clean inning, things go tits up.

When everyone was freaking out about potential six-out Chapman saves in the Giants series, I always thought Joe would have a pretty quick hook if he brought Chapman back out in the 9th at all. He was just using him in the highest-leverage situations against the other team's best hitters, which is kind of what's happening here (although the Dodgers lineup is funky tonight so who knows)

I would assume Strop and Wood are already warm considering how hot it is and how they worked in the pen in the 7th
