Joe lining up 8 righties against the lefty again and the first run is driven in by the lefty.

Well, that was always the worry with Darvish, that he would be fragile. That is always a crap shoot.

What Quintana doing?
Why didn't Maddon have him take pitches

These are the thing that ends up hurting them

I dont know what it like with all the other teams but it becoming pretty sad that the cubs have pitchers that can only go 4-5 innings most games because they can't get guys out the 3rd time through order..

They pretty much can't allow baserunners the first couple times through just to get 5-6 innings from them...

Right now the only 2 pitchers they can count on are Lester and Hendricks..

Not good

It is so weird to hear Len Kasper calling the game for Fox, with someone else as his color guy.

Almora catches that ball by McCutchen in his sleep...

Gotta just love it when our pitcher walks the leadoff guy on four pitches -- three of which were inside the strike zone.

Who's the ump? What hotel are they staying at? Who has his home phone number?

Most of all, how big a bribe did Bochy hand over to him with his lineup card?

I was just about to point out how much baserunners are respecting Schwarber's throwing arm, and then they go ahead and score on him on a sac fly.

Oh, well.

Anyone who don't think Almora should be playing everyday needs to quit riding Maddon jock strap...

With Rizzo on first, one run down, one out, I would have had Contreras try bunting him into scoring position, and then see if we could get either Gimmy or Addi get a hit to knock him in and tie the game.

It looked like the Giants were playing at double play depth, Willson might even have been able to lay down a bunt for a base hit...

Scoring position for Rizzo is 3rd base, not 2nd.

Unless you bunt, and he needs to stop and watch it.

The silver lining is we’ll have free time for activities in October other than watching baseball.
