    Some runs would be nice.

    I keep waiting for the "offense explosion" that the broadcast team has been talking about.

    Typical Cubs. Bats go silent in the playoffs, broken fn record.
    Pitching usually wins in the playoff. Otherwise those Yankees teams would have won more World Series.

    Surprised we used Almora Jr as a PH so early in the game. Thought we would save him for his late game defense.

    Ahead in the count 0-2 and he lets the pitcher get a hit? Just a huge mental mistake right there.

    3 fastballs right down the middle?

    We've done this to plus 4 ERA guys all year. Rizzo has swung at more balls than whore on a Friday night. Crafty pitchers give our team problems.

    Was nice of Fowler to run us right out of an inning there.
