IST: Cubs @ Orioles

[chibears55]

on the plus side at least the held on to the lead. Koji, Edwards and Davis should be able to get you 3 innings. Just need to survive the 6th hopefully

That's going to be a big hopefully..
Not sure if it Strop or Rondon there

Until Schwarber cuts down his massive swing with 2 strikes, he not going to be much of a hitter

Or maybe from Happ

Well that lead is gonzo

Sad day when 8 runs isn't enough of a lead.

Can't be made at Uehara. Guy has been solid.

 

[chibears55]

Yep.. 8 run lead is gone

Bats went silence..
pitching sucked

When I saw we were starting the second half with our #5 starter, I thought it was odd. But I like Montgomery, and we got off to early lead, so it looked good.

At 8-0, I told my son we need to save some runs, but retracted it, because I (once again) felt this team was ready to go on a run.

Starting the second half with a blown 8-0 lead was NOT in the plans.

Grimm is the issue.

Too many times I think to myself when Willson is catching "why was that the pitch in that situation?" Add a 1-2 change to Trumbo to that list.

It's honestly nuts how this team can go from 0-100 real quick or 100-0 if you prefer. They had 7 hits off Gausman in 3 innings and have 2 hits the rest of the game. Obviously this is more on the pitching tonight than the offense but still pretty nuts.

Yet Montero was the one who was "poor defensively".

People don't get that calling a game and framing are HUGE.

Teams are 1-185 after going down 8 runs this year at any point during game..

To an extent. None of em could throw the ball over the plate.

Nice to see Russell doing something.

 

[Bigfoot]

eventhough it was a K, nice AB by Baez, and Russell goes yard.

Good on addy for making me look like an ass for my hit comment.

 

[chibears55]

Way to go Addi

Can't blow this one to start 2nd half

Also i need to amend my earlier comment. The cubs are a pretty good team when they hit 5 HRs.
