2019-09-22: Pirates (Williams) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 4-3]

[LouisEly]

Cubs leading 2-1, top 8.

 

Gotta root for the Cubs now.

[phnxcrew]

Thanks Marlins! Nationals lose 5-3.

 

If we host the wildcard game that makes things a lot easier. They seem to be finding the Miller Park magic of former teams.

[pacopete4]

Well, that stunk. Starts with Moose guessing on strike 3. Just have to put the ball in play there.

[John Jahahaha]

Thank you Marlins! Also, if the score remains the same to end this game, I believe we are then +1 in the fabled run differential column

This actually makes me a bit sad. I liked the idea of us making the players in the red.

[John Jahahaha]

I definitely hear that, something about it seems very congruent with the team grinding their way to the postseason, expectations be damned

Maddon is just going to put Kimbrel in again in the 9th.

[Pugger]

We just got the game up after watching the Pack win earlier.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Yu Darvish is finally pitching well for the Cubs. Might be too little, too late.

[Pugger]

What is happening at Wrigley?

[Pugger]

Good lord.

[Pugger]

Come Freddy..

[Pugger]

How did Woody look today?

[BruisedCrew]

This is suddenly more interesting than you want.

 

That missed opportunity in the last of the 7th is looming large now.

Now that, that is 100%...an error. Not even close Arcia, let’s focus. Edited September 22, 2019 by MrTPlush

How did Woody look today?

 

Good. Short outing, but he was dominant again.

[Pugger]

OMG

[phnxcrew]

Ugh. Stop it.

[adambr2]

Come on Arcia. That was little league.

[adambr2]

Peralta was better than his line will say.

[Pugger]

Let's pray we get good Haderade today!

[pacopete4]

Yeah, Peralta didn't pitch poorly. Arcia didn't pull his head up or anything. Just missed the ball completely. Odd.

[Lostpawn]

Arcia. Makes amazing, tough plays, and then blows easy ones. Ugh.

[MrTPlush]

So under-spoken thing with the Nationals:

 

They have a double header Tuesday and not only is that tough as is to play (often times teams split) they have zero off days remaining. So it is going to require them to run out a lot more bullpen arms they don’t really want to.

[BruisedCrew]

What is happening at Wrigley?

 

Cubs lead 2-1, last of 8th, runners on 1st and 3rd with 2 out.
