First pitch at 1:20 CT from Wrigley Field in Chicago
1st for dingers
good start for Jake, but pitching count is too high for a 1-2-3 inning
also, though miggy would fuck that dropped 3rd up
>>68586493

>pirates announcers
>>68587756
>pirates anything
>emotional talk about Almora's dad's cancer treatment
>Montero's very upbeat Venezuelan music in the background
>jake giving up a hit
What a faggot
Jake is filthy today
if only he could be more efficient with pitch count, he'd have a chance for 20 Ks one day
>being so assblasted about facing Arrieta that you try and hit Rizzo in the head
Nice team you got there shitsburgh

how the weather in iceland
how many moar wins will the cubs need to make the playoff at their current pace....magic number
miller for kyle schwarber....do it theo
>>68593652
cloudly but pretty warm m8. overall pretty good.
the moisture is pretty frustrating though, my hair has a life of its own now
>>68593713
if we win it's 88
>>68593713
51, id say 95 wins would be a lock to either win the division or get a wild card
>30 pitches for Luebke
>no outs
Damn, that count work by Russell.
Montero's abs are so shit
>>68593801
no, that's completely retarded. If and when the Cubs give up Schwarber it's going to for a bigger haul than that.
>>68594716
>>68593801
Cubs aren't moving anyone period. If they trade anyone on the roster/DL it will be Soler
