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

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.

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.

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

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