Chicago Cubs 2016 Season

[soupy17]

Wow, crazy game. Now I've gotta decide if I want to drop 150 bucks to go see game 4.

Already too late for me!

I do not like how Maddon handles many in game situations.

I think tonight was an outlier. Just a weird game. Like you said in another post, Montgomery was huge. Cubs missed a lot of opportunities with runners on that almost forced his hand. I'll trust the manager who was won 200 regular season games and 5 playoff games in 2 years with the Cubs.

Wow, crazy game. Now I've gotta decide if I want to drop 150 bucks to go see game 4.

One of my codes that I live by is, "Do what makes for a better story." You never know when you could see something like this again. Though $150 isn't chump change.

I'm going to predict it now: Cub's offense unloads on Moore and ends the series tonight.

Gotta love Lackey in this situation tonight. Bats are ready to explode (at least I hope they are).

Thank goodness for coffee this morning.
My biggest concern at the moment is the Cubs reliance on their pitchers for their offense.

Always grateful for coffee. The offense has been concerning, particularly Rizzo.

Do it!
I am kind of jealous actually. $150 would not get you anywhere near Wrigley for one of these playoff games.

Anyone seen any slash lines for the Giants against Lackey?

That seems like a pretty easy decision.

Not as easy on a grad school salary, but you guys can probably guess which wau I'm leaning

I think it sold out. I was there last night (this morning!)

I have this same thought. We score 5+ runs the way we normally do and end the series tonite.

Decided to take this to heart, just bought a ticket in the bleachers! Can't wait!

Thanks.
Looks promising, especially with Nunez being hobbled.

Lineup: Fowler CF, Bryant 3B, Rizzo 1B, Zobrist LF, Russell SS, Heyward RF, Baez 2B, Ross C, Lackey P

The offense from the every day lineup is really struggling right now. I really don't want to go to game five and face Cueto again.

Game 5, if necessary, is why you work your butt of to get HFA.

 

[danielb927]

Crowd out here is really into the game. Cubbies are gonna need a big rally.

 

[Orange]

let's go!!!!!

 

[ChiCityHoops34]

Game 5 makes me want to puke.

 

[Hoppy2105]

I'm nervous for game 5 but this is what baseball is all about. We will get there one day. Maybe that will be this year. We get 2 more innings tonight and one game back home to hold off the Giants. Wrigley is going to be electric!

 

[Ramrod2010]

Just another year as a Cubs fan.

Just another year as a Cubs fan.

Is it, though?

 

[Hoppy2105]

Wow...there is our offense!

 

[champaignchris]

If nothing else, this series has cemented Javy Baez as a mf'ing superstar in the making.

C'mon Chapman! Don't wear the horns.

 

[Hoppy2105]

Well it looks like that game 5 will have to wait! NLCS!!!

 

[IanKEvans2]

I am bordering on speechless. Greatest Cubs moment of my lifetime thus far.

Hey danielb927, was that worth the $150 ticket?
