Cubs (Marquis) at NY Mets (Niese): 6:10 PM CDT

Arizona (Webb) at St. Louis (Wellemeyer): 7:15 PM CDT

LETS GO CUBBIES

Ugh. Marquis is awful.

This Mets/Cubs game really excites me and makes me nervous. If we can get to 1 game for the final push, I'm excited, if not, I don't feel good about our odds. That half a game is big.

I agree. It's definitely a different feel for me if we are 1 game out as opposed to 2 games heading into the rest of the week. Big game tonight.

LETS GO CUBBIES

CLAP, CLAP, CLAPCLAPCLAP.

[bucksman4]

If they win, this would be the only time I could stand hearing the awful "Go Cubs Go" song being played.

[GormanHarvey]

I totally agree about the Mets needing to lose tonight to shave the lead to 1. 1 back with 6 to go sounds sooo much more doable than 2 back with 6 to go

[naivin]

Agreed...tonight is the 'extra' game that the Brewers already lost. If the Mets win this one, I don't like the math one bit (I don't even like it if they lose).

If the Mets win this one, I don't like the math one bit (I don't even like it if they lose).

Why? The math is still on our side.

Cmon cubbies, clutch up once!

[adambr2]

I can't believe I'm sitting here watching the Cubs cheering for them to win. I feel so ashamed.

[GormanHarvey]

1 zip Cubs

[Worm8181]

1-0 cubs, woot.

[marquettefan13]

I can't believe I'm sitting here watching the Cubs cheering for them to win. I feel so ashamed.

I forgot I was supposed to root for them. I saw the 1-0 score and thought 'Oh man the Cubs are winning' and then thought 'Oh wait that's good - that's what I want to see http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.'

[HurricaneBraun]

tied, ugh

[Brewcrewin07]

Jason Marquis just WP'd in the tying run with two outs. Thanks Jason http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

[GormanHarvey]

Its early. I didn't expect much from the Cubs 1st time through. They had never seen this kid before

[bucksman4]

2-2 Reed Johnson base hit up the middle. He leads the Cubs in BA with runners in scoring position.

[trwi7]

Reed Johnson ties it! 1st and 2nd nobody out for the Cubs.

[trwi7]

Bases loaded nobody out. Take out Marquis for a pinch hitter Lou! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[bucksman4]
