Would it kill them to have a day game or two on Saturday or Sunday?

Night games always look so dark on TV because there are no lights in the outfield.


Not to mention game temp will be down in the 50's.

Very excited for the game tonight, I think the Cubs get their first NLCS win since 2003

I think the pitching matchups are very much in the Cubs favor this series. It's going to be interesting to see how Kershaw does tomorrow, 3 straight starts on short rest, plus the save in Game 7. Cubs could get into the pen early if they drive that pitch count up

Montgomery and Wood takes the position of Strop and Rondon in this series, as the 7th inning / setup guys..

Zastryzny will be used otherwise to keep those 2 fresh..

Obviously if we see Chapman, mostly means we're winning by 3 or less in 9th..


Obviously need the hitters putting up crooked numbers..

This series, especially with the RH starters will be about them going at least 6 strong and getting the game to the LHers in pen

Montgomery is stretched out. He would be for if someone gets in trouble early. Wood, Rondon, and Strop will be a mixture for 7th and 8th. You may see Chapman used more than an inning as well.

That could be worse case scenario with Montgomery and if a starter can't go 6..
But
I think going in, Maddon hope would be using Montgomery and Wood from 6th inning on..
Both being able to go multiple innings, Maddon would have option of leaving them in to start next inning.

Strop and Rondon would be used to get the RHers out late..


With Dodgers lineup, it would just be a switch in their jobs between the 4 relievers..

You have heard of him just he is never called by Enrique. He is called Kiki Hernandez.

Haha wow. Ok you are right. I know of Kiki, just not Enrique.
