Pancakes posted:That said, this had been the best-played of the divisional series so far, even if NY/CLE had the most entertaining game. Uh, have we been watching the same series? Both teams have been ice cold offensively outside of very brief bursts, are committing errors like it's going out of style, and have been dogged by hilariously bad management. I guess you could argue it's been pitched relatively well, but that only goes for the starters.

Basically what I'm saying is that whoever wins, they're going to get mowed down by the Dodgers. That said go Cubs because gently caress Daniel Murphy and gently caress Dusty Baker.

My drinking game for today: 1 Drink every time a Cub strikes out 1 Drink every time a Cub hits in to an out on the first pitch 2 Drinks every time the Cubs go down 1-2-3 Finish my drink if they go down 1-2-3 only on strike outs and/or first pitch swinging outs I expect to be dead by the end of the game, wish me luck.

gently caress it I'll take it, although how do you ground out on a pitch at your eyeballs.

Kyle just can't keep the ball down. He and Gio apparently traded places between innings.

Sorry it's my fault, I didn't realize walking away for 15 minutes to shower was going to cause the Cubs' best pitcher to melt into jelly on the field. Seriously though who the gently caress is Michael Taylor?

bawfuls is cool and good, although that my bias may be reinforced by having a Dodger fan roommate who is also cool and having to live in the Bay Area which is full of obnoxious as gently caress bandwagon Giants fans.

Rizzo doesn't get to complain about outside calls though, that's the trade off for trying to gently caress the plate every AB.

As soon as I saw "In Play, run(s)" I knew it was going to be on a sac fly or some piece of poo poo ground out that only scores one. The Cubs can't actually capitalize in a meaningful way off bases loaded.

And then Heyward strikes out on a pitch even further off the plate than the previous wild pitch

So does Joe let Hendricks try to rebound, or is it Q time?

bawfuls posted:I haven't watched a ton of Cubs games this year but I feel like that at bat must have captured the essence of Heyward quite well He's been better than last year but that's not exactly a high bar to clear, and he's still been incredibly disappointing at the plate. Guy makes tons of solid contact but it's either flyballs he can't keep fair or grounders to the right side. His timing is still completely hosed.

So I had to go pick up my roommate from the airport so I could only occasionally check gameday. Did Wieters seriously commit a passed ball error, throwing error, and catchers interference in the same inning? How does that even work?
