Go cubs

what inning do the pirates bean arrieta?
>>67577542
>ABC
I'm still boycotting them after that Path to 9/11 bullshit series. It doesn't help that they are the worst offender of stuffing commercials into their sports events.
I'm subjecting myself to the online stream of the pirate broadcast to avoid channel 7.
>>67577706
Late in the game after Arrieta is on his way to pitch a perfect game against them.
COOOOOoooooold beeeEEEEERRRRRR!
No hitter alert!
Jake Arrieta and jeff locke have combined to through a perfect game through one inning each! This is the 15381st time such an event has occured in mlb history
-source:E!SPN
Hey Shitrats fans, how does it feel knowing the Cubs are superior to you in every single way?
FUCKING DAILY KEKED
>>67577895
C'mon bro... be cool.
I promise not all cubs fans are assholes, pirate fans
Why is it that Arrieta can't seem to throw a perfect game?
>>67577999
Not enough pilates.
>who /pumpedforarriettaday/ here?
>>67577999
Why is it that you can't seem to get quads?
I think Arrieta goes 8, gives up two walks and one hit.
So basically a 'meh' game for him.
>>67578049
Hopping he doesnt pitch like last start
>>67578049
Feels good man

H-he'll start t-turning things around any d-day now...
>Locke starts the game with two (2) shutout innings
It's a Christmas miracle.
Fuck off ABC7
no one gives a shit about your news anchors
>that pitch
>that perfect swing from Mercer
Anyone else's heart stop?

>>67578278
True autism at its best
>>67578295
Probably because they want to make sure Miggy has actually recovered before they send down their backup's backup.
>mlb.tv stopped working
that's fine, I didn't want to watch >us lose anyway.
Fucking arrieta with the slighlty stoopid walkup music. What a bro
>Jeff Locke with three (3) straight shutout innings
Truly these are the end times.
Soler is garbage staright garbage garbage in field garbage in box kill him with fire. Garbage. Garbage
>solar
Need I say more?
Nice defense Solerror
>>67578278
found PirateDave
>Soler
Why has he not been demoted? Even Heyward can fucking field a ball.
On a scale of 0 to warriors, how bad are the cubs going to be bandwagoned or meme'd?
Fucking hell
>>67578625
FUCK
The end is nigh
REEEEEEEE
Artieta is not elite
Is the meme over lads?
Holy shit, fuck this inning and fuck Jorge Soler.
HOLY SHIT ARRIETA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Yeeeees. Kill the Korean again.
>>67578713
the arrieta meme?
Fuck, Chimprats gonna retaliate now
Get ready for retaliation lads
>>67578731
>>67578734
Free baserunner at least
>>67578727
Yes
I'm betting Bryant gets one right on the ass cheek
>>67578778
And brawls! Dont forget the glorious brawls
that's gonna cost you, cubbies -- jake's going out on a stretcher next at bat
We need to get Coghlan back here to kill Kang again
Fuckin Cubes. Every time you try to kill based Chinaman he just comes back stronger than he was before.
>>67577604
You may be in luck
>>67578785
I'm afraid it might be. and i dunno what >we will do without him pitching the way he has
>Heyward gets a hit
What black magic is this?
>>67578828
He's a gook, not a chink.
>>67578810
>>67578828
He didn't do it on purpose, dumbass. Give us the free baserunner, pls.
>>67578908
The origin of the Chinaman is not the issue here, dude.
Lets be honest... Bryant struck out at least twice there
Pirates getting jobbed this game
>>67578921
Was getting caught in a double play immediately afterwards part of the plan?
>It's a Jeff Locke remembers he's shit episode

i didn't see him swing and miss after strike 2 though
RIIIIIIZZZZZZZZO!
NOT SO FAST PIE RATS
>>67578993
Oh yeah i forgot it was whiffle ball rules! Only swinging strikes count
>>67578981
I don't blame Locke. First batter grounded out, second batter struck out looking, ump won't call a strike for him unless it's right down the middle. A pitch down the middle is going to get hit.
>shitsburg
Singles and Soler strikes out. Again.
>>67579020
well there definitely weren't any balls in the strike zone
>telling your players to retaliate
Pirates are a cancer to baseball
Wow, Ray Searage got ejected?
Shitcago really are paying off the umps.
Wut?
>>67578952
I just like getting my racial epithets correct, friend.
>>67579059
Go back and watch again
>chimpsburgh
>>67578981
Don't worry, Jorge Soler hasn't forgotten that he's shit.
>>67579055
The dubs lied to us
>>67579055
Soler's shittyness overpowered your lack of singles
>>67579055
Not even Dubs can save the fuck up that is Soler.
When is this faggot being going back to the minors?
>striking out against Jeff Locke on 3 pitches
This Soler guy seems like a bum
start Baez not Solar please
They're not even pretending to hide it anymore. This is a travesty to the game. Mother fucking Ottoman Empire faggots.
>>67579153
I dont understand this comment
>>67579136
I think the Cubs want someone who's worse than Heyward in the lineup. There is no other rational reason.
>>67579166
The fix is in.
>>67579166
He thinks the Cubs bribed the Umps to give them a favorable strike zone and throw out the Pie Rats starting catcher.
Jokes on that faggot though, all the bribe money was wasted on Heyward.
Jake bomb
Surprised they didn't throw at Jake first pitch.
>>67579219
He'll go down swinging.
When a reliever comes in, they're going to throw at him.
Doubles confirm.
Go shitcinnati style and bean him.
>>67579244
Oh shit
>>67579244
he popped out ..
>>67579244
dubs confirm
>>67579278
He still swung.
>>67579244
>shitcago in charge of predictions
Just like your postseason hopes.
>>67579278
Your mom popped out.
Popped out a faggot named (You).
>>67579297
I guess
>>67579344
hurtful
>>67579299
he said when a reliever comes in.
>>67579349
I couldn't resist.
>Locke still in
He's giving up at least two more runs next inning.
>>67579177
DUBS!!! HOLY SHIT ITS CONFIRMED! DUBS!!! MADON IS A MADMAN! DUBBBBBBBBBBZZZZZZZZ !!!!!!
>Heyward is 2/2
I think Heyward is just absorbing Soler's talent, it explains both why Heyward is hitting and why Soler is ass.
Or Fowler. He's stealing mojo from another black guy on the team.
>Heyward gets another hit
is heyward heating up?
>>67579604
Watch what you say
>>67579595
He always had that magic negro vibe
>>67579628
hey man i'm just asking. it seems like he is but he probably is just getting lucky.
>>67579676
Did the Cardinals have any black players who's batting average took a nose dive when Heyward was hot?
If the Pirates are going to throw at Arrieta, they better do it next inning because I don't think he's going to be in past the 7th.
Jake finally returning to form.
>>67579726
Is tommy pham black
>>67579726
They had some brown players who took a drunken nose dive into stationary objects
>>67579801
We talking brown as in Mexican brown, or lighter skin blacked? Their origin is important for this study.
>Locke still pitching
Sorry lads, looks like no one is throwing at Arrieta today.
>Bucs forced to bunt against Arrieta cause they keep striking out
>>67579837
Dominican
Solar sucks
>>67579837
Whatever Dominican is.
Time for Locke to give up about 5 runs this inning
>>67579879
Not black then.
>Soler deciding to fly out on the first pitch as opposed to being a complete, worthless sack of shit and wasting 3 pitches striking out.

Didn't even directly hit him, looked like just the jersey
>Reliever in
So who wants to take bets they're going to throw at Arrieta and incite a brawl?
Good get >Locke the fuck out of there.
Maybe we'll only give up the 2 runs this inning.
>>67580048
Yeah, but jersey counts as HBP afaik
>Jim Deshaies remarking on a decent three earned run, six-inning start the same moment Russell takes him deep for a two-run shot

It does. Just a funny detail when they could have hit Arrieta

Get your shit together senpai
Man, Pirates are never going to get over the hump when they just let other teams bully them like this and let it get to them. Brewers through most of the 2000's, Dusty with the Reds, and now Maddon with the Cubs. I mean it's nice have the Penguins and Steelers to root for, but even after the recent success it's still tough telling people I'm a Pirates fan without following it with a "yeaaaaah...."
Who /JD cult/ here?
>FUN CAM

Arrieta strikes out Rodriguez with a dead center fast ball.
Is there any situation where Rodriguez will win or is he the eternal whipping boy?
>>67580872
Good one
lmao did anyone catch those fans making fun of rodriguez for beating up that cooler?

Arrieta makes my benis feel weird
niggers
So you're Maddon, do you keep Jake in when his pitch count is 105+ or send in Grimm or Strope?
>>67580941
>>67580966
can't, i'm watching a stream
it was in the ROOT broadcast
arrieta gives up 2 earned runs thru 8 with 11 ks and his era bloats
>>67580981
you go to the pen
gotta keep jake's pitch count down when you can
They won't let Arrieta bat again :(
>Arreita gives up 2 runs and his ERA bloats and he gets a win.
>Quentaro gives up 2 runs and his ERA goes down but he gets a loss.
The wasteland of that is the South Side of Chicago
>>67581028
can't risk the Chimprates throwing one at his ear
>>67581080
>The wasteland of that is the South Side of Chicago
Nuke when?
>Negative runs
Was that the hardest hit ball by Heyward this season?
Heyward is 3/4+walk today
I think it's confirmed that Heyward is some sort of nigger vampire who leeches the skill from one of his teammates. Soler is his latest victim.
>>67581118
>too far east to be in North Korea's range
>too far west to be in any of the Middle Eastern countries' range
Goddammit Bryant
RBIs + tootblan
>>67581162
Maybe, Heyward somehow has 5 doubles this season
3 hits for him today, what is going on...
What the fuck Byrant!?
Kb running the bases like little leaguer
no brakes on the run machine
Is Rizzo the Gronk of the MLB?
Aka the big relatable bro white guy?
Strope or Grimm better not fuck up the run differential.
>>67581268
no brakes on KB either
I love this damned team. The runs just don't stop.
>>67581175
>mfw I burst out laughing but then stopped and felt bad because i'm a cubs fan
>>67581204
>>67581209
>>67581212
He still young, all he wants is flashy plays. Hopefully he gets smarter
Inb4 the bullpen blows the run diff
>>67581301
They will in October :^)
>>67581309
Man i think you saved the gif wrong
>>67581276
Rizzo doesn't commit penalties every time he makes a play like Gronk does, and isn't he carrying the entire team on his back on multiple occasions because the leader of the team is a system baby. So no. Rizzo isn't like Gronk.
Also Cubs haven't cheated, so that too.
>>67581326
for you
KB with 25 RBIS
Russell with 27
Based Zo with 28
Rizzo with 33
Is it just me or is Rizzo's stance overtly sexual?
>>67581382
I cum when those hips gyrate
>>67581382
He does stand erect and goes down on his knees a lot
>>67581353
I meant from a personality standpoint. I don't watch concussion egg so I only see Gronk as cool party guy who appears on sports center partying and whatnot.
>>67581382
>maybe I could be your cleanup hitter tonight
Seagulls are known scavengers, they know when something is near death.
