We can dance if we want to,
we can leave Marle behind.
'Cause your fiends don't dance,
and if they don't dance,
they'll get a Robo Fist of mine.

they also let him throw 110 pitches on 3 days rest in Game 4

He is going to pitch until he's gassed

Prob being that Roberts needs to lay down the law when this happens

I'm hoping for a no no as a Cubs fan, thats the best possible outcome here. If a perfect game is thrown at Wrigley and everyone is there to hear it does it still make a sound?

Kershaw pitchcount by inning: 11, 10, 10, 9

I feel bad for Kyle that the only hit he's given up had to be a loving homerun. He's otherwise shut the Dodgers down well.

For all that I poo poo-talk about October Kershaw I think he's a victim of his own greatness in the postseason and, though I'm grateful that my team has wrecked him multiple times, I truly feel badly for him when I see it happen every year.

Clayton Kershaw is a generational talent. You should never feel bad for him or the Dodgers.

You could take a line up of all post season pitchers and they would be out hitting the Cubs lineup - their pitchers by a loving mile.

Montgomery is up in the pen and I think if Hendricks allows one more runner he's done.
