Too bad the Cubs are more likely to put up the zero.

Too bad you may be right. But we haven't been shutout lately, and apparently Johnson is in a bit of a slump? Maybe at least one of our 27+ plate appearances someone can tee off with runners on.

Looks like the wind is blowing in. That'll help a bit.

My favorite teams
6-8 4.71 ERA
Not the two best stats to use, but I think Jeff has lost his luster of being anything more than a 4 starter on a good team.

We've actually only been shutout 5 times this year. And two were against the Sux.

Ump's zone is a tad inconsistent. Some of those balls were strikes, but I guess it evens out.

Samardzija was lucky that pitch didn't end up in orbit.

Frustrating start to the game. Cubs hit the ball hard 3 times, and three good defensive plays on them....then infante feathers a ball over 2nd. ugh.

Samardzija has a pretty good K-rate this season.

No shutout for Samardzija either.
