I get the frustration but largely think people get a bit too invested in game to game. Cubs are 7-8 in 1 run games. So 8 of their 17 losses have been 1 run. 5 of their losses have been by 2 runs. 1 has been by 3 runs. 2 have been by 5 runs and one has been by 8. So, if we're looking at the totality of the cubs season, they've been out scored by 3 or more a grand total of 4 times in 57 games.
The way I look at it is the cubs are a team that often times has no business winning games but on sheer talent brings themselves back into winning situations. Most teams at this point would have far more 3+ run losses. Tonight the cubs really didn't play all that well. Hendricks wasn't terrible but didn't last long. Offense had 6 hits and 2 walks which again isn't terrible but clearly the team can do better. You're gonna have those days.
Not about being frustrated...
Just want your team to win
Yea their not gonna win them all but it just sucks to lose against bad teams, and or lose because they give up a run(s) late or cant get a big hit..
I want or hope this season for the Cubs can be like the year the bulls won 72 games and capped it off with a Championship...
I just want this season to be extra special for them and for us fans who have gone through many many losing seasons and waited for a season like this is so far and can hopefully be in the end with a Championship.
