Bruce hits into a douple play to end the inning, but it drove in Votto to make it a 2-1 game.

Time for Campana to steal second and Soto to steal home.

The Cubs offense might be better than the #s show. Every game I watch it looks like we have 5-6 balls that we hit hard...line-drive at'em balls. Like Castro's right there.

Cubs definitely have a BABIP problem.

Stewart has been hitting the ball ridiculously hard right at defenders all season.

I haven't looked at as a team, but I would guess that it wouldn't be that bad since LaHair and Campana have really high BABIP. Whereas Soto and Stewart have really low BABIP.
Almost a great play by Stewart there.

It's got to be almost completely a BABIP problem because of all the homers not hit, and since they're not walking all that much...

But I am guessing they strike out a fair bit and I don't know what the LD% of the team is either.

That has to be the sweetest double play I've seen the Cubs make in a long time, and just shows why you keep Castro at SS for now. Very few SS have the arm to make that play.

Only 49 pitches for Samardzija through 5 IP. Very efficient.

That was a huge stop by DeWitt and a great flip to Castro to get it started.

Brenly and Kasper are really laying into the home plate ump's strikezone. Soriano pulled a bouncer through the left side of the infield.
