Waino returning from a ruptured freaking achillies on his plant leg is nothing but definitive proof of the dark powers at work for the Cardinals.

I'm just thankful this guy can't start right now (at least in this series)

 

[Josh5890]

Taking Wood out.

Idk.

Probably doesn't want to keep him out too long. Might need him early in game 4 if hammel craps.

I swear to god if he comes out in the 9th against the Mets I'll legit have a panic attack.

Please beat them for us.

 

[brianjones]

trevor cahill?

wow

 

[sf2fanatic]

Can the Dodgers do small ball? Whatever it takes, just beat the Mets. Go Blue!

They should. But McGwire doesn't do small ball.

Chicks Dig the Long Ball

 

[CosmicQueso]

Trevor Cahill sighting.

Who's next? Brandon Webb?

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Trevor Cahill just pitched an inning of scoreless relief in a postseason game.

If you told me that in June lol.

Rosenthal would get that nod most likely.

How about that 1-2-3 inning

 

[zychi]

God awful home plate umpiring last two nights. Cubs finally get some help from it last inning.

Jesus christ its bad tho

 

[Frozenprince]

Further proof Bosio is the best, he turned Trevor Cahill into that.

Yea. At least it looks like a split. Hopefully the next few games will be better behind the plate.

Can someone explain what's the deal with the K and upside down K that appears in the on screen scoreboard? I know K means strike and strikeout but why do they show it upside down sometimes?

Backwards k means batter didnt swing. Normal k means they swung

A regular K means the batter swung and miss on strike three. A backwards K means it was a called strike three.

Thanks guys.

I'm buckling up for a stressful bottom of the ninth.

No lead is ever big enough for us Cubs fans

 

[brianjones]

good work cubs

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Awesome.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Congrats Cub peeps

 

[Rock And Roll]

Huge win for the Cubs for obvious reasons. This series has just gotten interesting...

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Now let's tie this series.

Deliver us to victory King Greinke!

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Errors did the Cards in.
Good job Cubs.

 

[Frozenprince]

Now let's tie this series.

Deliver us to victory King Greinke!

Not so fast.

 

[bebop242]

Kudos to the bullpen. Rizzo and Bryant still goose egging.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Not so fast.

Man. Thor wrecked Gomez with that pitch.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Will be interesting to see if anyone comes in moaning about how hard it is to be a Dodger fan if the team gets off to a slow start.

No one knows suffering like LA sports fan. Everyone knows.

 

[lastflowers]

good job today Cubbie warriors. Time to finish off Satan so no matter what the World Series will be a win.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Dang, now we have to win 2 out of 3 with Arrieta and Lester pitching. No biggie.

If only the Cards could play some flawless defense in October.

 

[Josh5890]

I don't want to think too far ahead but if Arietta pitches like he should, we could be looking at a 2-1 lead

 

[HarryDemeanor]

No one knows suffering like LA sports fan. Everyone knows.

It's pretty bad. Lakers haven't won since 2010.

 

[bebop242]

I'm actually concerned about Arietta. His stuff wasn't very good in Pittsburgh and mentioned being exhausted afterward.

 

[Josh5890]

Well if his stuff wasn't good and he still threw a CG shutout, I feel alright. I guess best case scenario is a big lead again after 6 and we can let the bullpen bring us home.

 

[zychi]

Lots of media obligatioms before that. Ive never heard him talk for more than 30 seconds before those few days. Dude was everywhere. He'll have his bed and Wrigley. He'll be fine.

 

[Frozenprince]

His stuff was fine, plenty of bite on his cutter, his breaking stuff was all fine. He worked the middle of the plate so much because guys swung.

Conforto just had the "BP of his life" today. Everything he touched went out of the park.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Beat LA!!!!

 

[BumRush]

Frozen, do you have a gif of that late game 100 mph strikeout pitch from Thor to Harper?

 

[jello44]

good job today Cubbie warriors. Time to finish off Satan so no matter what the World Series will be a win.

Except the Cubs. I'm not ready for the Apocalypse.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I'm ready for a Cubs WS win. God has punished those people enough.

 

[Frozenprince]

Frozen, do you have a gif of that late game 100 mph strikeout pitch from Thor to Harper?

My personal favorite:

 

[Rock And Roll]

Dodgers suck

 

[sf2fanatic]

It's pretty bad. Lakers haven't won since 2010.

Harry plz. If soccer counts we haven't won in about a couple of months. But then again you right.

 

[detectiveconan1]

In celebration of what may be the final game at Dodger Stadium this year.

 

[richiek]

It's pretty bad. Lakers haven't won since 2010.

The Kings won in 2014.

The Grandyman can!

 

[DoktorEvil]

Grandy Man Can!

Nice placing of that hit.

 

[richiek]

What's with the gratuitous shots of Kershaw, TBS?

 

[JDHarbs]

KC-GAF, does anyone know if local tv will be showing the MLB Network feed tomorrow because I think it is utterly ridiculous to lock their local market behind a paywall like that.

 

[Frozenprince]

What's with the gratuitous shots of Kershaw, TBS?

Something something he sucks something something.

 

[Frozenprince]

If they could get Kenny, Charles, and GKR all in the booth with Ernie, then I might listen for more than 3 innings.
