At least everything is clear who to root for in all series this weekend.

[PinaMadness]

Leadoff home run for Murphy to start the game.

[bucks2281]

So for those of us who want the Rockies in the WC Game, at what point do we start rooting for them?

[jerichoholicninja]

Friday afternoon home game for the White Sox? Are the Cubs messing with the start time for road games now too?

[pacopete4]

3-1 good guys

[fondybrewfan]

White Sox lighting up Quintana in the 2nd. Now up 3-1.

 

I am getting my hopes up.

 

If we can be 1.5 games going into next week we have a legitimate shot.

I think the Sox pitcher today has been doing well lately. Their starter Rodon on Sunday has also been very good the second half. Cle got to him earlier this week but overall he's been pretty darn good since coming back. It's not crazy for them to get 2/3 here.

White Sox up 4-1 now but probably should jave at least one more. Q with 70+ pitches through 4, so hopefully the Cubs have to burn some relievers. They just had a day off but have no more until the season ends.

6-1!!

[hurricanecrush]

And 7-1!

White Sox lighting up Quintana in the 2nd. Now up 3-1.

 

I am getting my hopes up.

We could be 1.5 games back after tonight!

This Cubs game is a nice start to the weekend.

[lukevan]

9-1. I was told “true contenders” don’t lose to teams like this.

[MDCrew]

They are really using that pen tonight.

[liveforoctober]

Hold on tight all. Things bought to get fun in the NL Central..

[PinaMadness]

Good to see the Cubs entire offensive output came from the first batter of the game. Now if we can only figure out the Pirates, things could get interesting.

[PinaMadness]

Alleged MVP front runner Javier Baez is 0 for 4 with two Ks.

[homer]

Be kinda perfect if the Sox ruined the Cubs chances for a division title.

[Underachiever]

Cubs top three hitters: 5 for 11, 3 runs scored. And they are still down 10-4. I like it.

[PinaMadness]

These last two innings are taking forever. Just finish them off, Sox.

[young guns]

Aaaaaand it's done! Cubs lose!

[Bigblast]

Imagine walking a player to get to Braun a few years ago.

 

 

Way to make them pay Braun!!!

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Cards facing Bumgarner. It is1-0 bad guys in the first.

 

I have a weird feeling all three Central contenders lose tonight. Hope I am wrong about the Brewers. We will see.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Rockies down 2-0 early. As much as I don't want to play the Cards in that WC game, I woild rather CO loses and knocks one more off that magic number. My heart can't take the Crew making this too interesting.
