If this score holds, then 12 of the Cubs' 15 losses (80%) will have been by 1 or 2 runs.

e: Yeah this score's not holding

If you had lost to the Braves like yesterday, we would have beaten the Dodgers for you. Can't have your lead and widen it too.

I guess asking the team that dropped a series to the Padres to win is just too much to ask.

I am at the point now where the amazing ability the Tigers have to lose games doesn't even surprise me now. What was up with the bunts at the top of the 9th? Why were they bunting? What was there to be gained? And then loving Mark Lowe?

gently caress, I guess I am surprised.
