Phillips appears hurt, took a spill and just doesn't look right.

Is it just me or should Herrera should have had both of those last two balls hit to him?

This hadn't occurred to me prior but Fowler has a great name for the type of player he is.

Only the 5th and only 3 down. That's why you bring in the higher OBP guys they have because one guy on base and Soler/Rizzo/Castro can make it a one run game pretty quick.

Can't be trailing every game, Cubs. Need to start strong in games.

Alcantara needs a lot of work hitting a Change. Deshaies was telling the truth about that.

Not saying it's going to happen just that the 5th inning is a bit early to be calling it a game with only a 3 run hole to dig out of especially considering they've done it the past couple days.

I realized it was still kinda early but normally a team that struggling to put hits together and score without the long ball isn't gonna find that long ball magic a 3rd game in a row .
especially on a Cold night at Wrigley with wind blowing in..

Being 2-hit by a pitcher with a career 6 ERA.

There have been better nights.

Lefty vs lefty

Need that big hit from him now.. just a single will do
