How about a big fly to make this interesting?

Albert finally gets on base and gets thrown out on the bases.

So long rally.

Strike to Russell six inches inside.

Wait, maybe that HBP was a strike, too.

Fucking Pirates hit more batters than the Larussa Cards did.

If they call him out I am throwing something at my TV.

Almora got pushed off third, now we lose a run? Fuck this shit!

And Fuck You Clint Hurdle. I am pissed after the HBP. Thought you'd retire the pitcher, and now Schwarber represents the tying run - even after we lose one.

And fuck this home plate ump, too.

That first pitch was not a fucking strike.

Hurdle wanted to get more out of the pitcher who just let the Cubs bat around, so he let him bat with the bases loaded.

Can we make him regret that?

NO!!!

Jesus H Christ!!!!!!!

And all after two outs and the bottom of the order up, we give them all back. Pitched around the 8th place hitter. WTF!

I really don't think any intelligent fan is going to assume Alozolay is forgettable simply because he's struggling in his second start.

And apparently someone here needed a new alt to post such a comment.

I seriously believe we have about three people here who post under ten names combined between them.

Yes, any knowledable fan can see that the Cubs pitchers are really great ... just struggling. Only giving up 12 runs in 5 innings really pretty good, considering their youth and tender psyches....
