We have SIX runs.
A's have FOUR hits.
And they are likely to win.

What? Wick was pinch hit for and Happ hit a homerun. Cishek has had a good season. You dont expect him to give up 3 with only one out.

Agreed. Beckdawg could check my memory with facts, but Milwaukee had quite a few players with career type years last season. IOW, there was bound to be a drop off. St Louis is the competition.

I forgot that was Happ's AB, as most would have double switched when they brought Wick in to avoid such a necessity.

Umm, yeah. Seems like everytime I watch this guy pitch he's giving up runs.

You said they were likely to win. They are losing in the 8th inning. The stats favor the Cubs winning.

Tony Kemp blocks an easy ground ball with his body, and makes the absolute weakest throw to first I have ever seen.
I honestly thought it would short hop Rizzo, arrive late, or both.

Anyone else just feel more confident of strikes when Kinzler is pitching than Cishek?! Cisheks technique just worries the hell outta me..like he has no control :/ Big difference in my opinion

The 8th inning is the killer for this 2019 club. If they can survive the 8th with the lead they will most likely win. At least with Kimbrel. Now since hes hurt hope someone steps up in the pen tonight.

Yes. Cishek's herky-jerky motion makes it tough to throw strikes consistently. There are noghts he looks unhittable, yet he walks guys. Different delivery, but the same results as Marmol.
