Only thing they have going is if the pitching able to shut Cards down rest of way
Bats could chip away as Martinez is over 50 pitches through 3 innings

I don't mind swinging on 3-0 with power hitters but they got to be swinging at pitches they can pull hard not going oppo

That's the thing. I usually don't mind it. But Martinez threw 3 straight balls to Zobrist, walked him on 5 pitches. Then a 4 pitch at bat to Rizzo.. Starts Bryant off 3-0.

Maybe with the threat of rain Maddon took the go for it approach with Rizzo and Bryant over being patience..

Cubs first game at Wrigley Field was a 100 years ago today. I think a 100 years in the same ballpark without a championship is a record that will never be broken.

Anyone read the article about the T-shirt controversy? The shirt says "Try not to suck" and it has Maddon type glasses in the middle. Ushers told people the shirt is offensive. The proceeds of the shirt go to charity. Maddon tells players before they go to bat to "try not to suck". Its why the shirt was made. People be cray now a days

Sadly it's the world we live in. People get offended pretty easy these days.

I read it, and I am ticked off at myself for changing out of it for last night's game.

I had it on, and changed.

Damn!!

That at bat shows the difference of Rizzo now and two years ago. Smart at bat. They weren't going to let him beat them on a fastball

Well, I know people were upset that Chris Archer was so good last year. I know its early but he is getting lit up. Boston just jumped all over him and he was not good in his starts prior.
