What time do the Cubs play tomorrow?

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

8pm. Unless we get out of this inning and hit the damn ball.

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

Nevermind. 8pm.

Watch us win tomorrow and then we’ll have a 5 game series with these fucks.

That would be quite the change from the travel schedule they've had the last few post seasons.

Hasn't this Hader fellow ever heard of Proactive?

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

We have 2 fucking hits today.

T-W-O 2.

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

Christ Contreras, you were 6 inches under that ball.

Yeah, but the .233 hitting SS for the Brewers has twice as many hits.

Cubs have the Top of the order. Lets see what they can do.

I heard they might not bring Maddon back if they don't go far in the playoffs?

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

Damn, thought he might've gotten a hold of another one.

bbiggs · October 2018

Taking off my Cubs fan hat for a second. The better team won.

darwinstheory · October 2018

No excuses, but the Brewers did have to win 20 out of 27 to make it happen. That is impressive.

Impressive indeed. And with the Cubs having to play 41 games in 42 days, it’s impressive they were still in position today to take it. I’m surprised there weren’t more injuries, but it’s quite obvious attrition has set in. We lost the division by a game and had to play an extra game to do so. And still finished with the second best record in the league.

Though I must say MLB should really look into changing the Postseason seeding by record. This is twice in the last 4 seasons now that we’ve finished with a better record than two division winners and ended up as a WC. Wouldn’t be fair to Milwaukee either had they lost today.

Gtilley8 · October 2018

My two cents - the Brewers did everything they needed to do to win the central. Hats off to them. 20-7 to finish up in a pennant race deserves a league title.

The Cubs - we just can't string together any hits. Too many Ks. A lot of stupid managerial moves..... Real head scratchers at times. Over use of analytics. Not having Strop hurt today. Off season moves were terrible. Darvish barely pitched, and when he did, he sucked. Chatwood .... Well, we'd have been better off pulling a local high school kid.

I think we get blown out tomorrow. Hope to be pleasantly surprised.

darwinstheory · October 2018

Colorado it is.

HesCalledDyer · October 2018

Strop on the WC roster. Edwards out.

Never thought I’d be saying this, but that seems like a good thing.

flashing back to 200. what year did the Cubs lose to the Diamondbacks in the play in game?

The only other one & done games they've played were a tie-breaker against the Giants in '98 for the Wild Card, and the Wild Card game against the Pirates in '15. They won both. Perhaps you're thinking of the 2007 NLDS when they were swept by Arizona?

that's the one. don't know why I was thinking that was a 1 and done. then again I was drinking pretty heavily back in those days. I remember the great 98 game! "Win it for Harry Caray"!!!

Trolls, troll. Why not? You could go sit in your basement-dweller shrine to the Giants, but you'd have nothing to root for there.

Chicago Cubs baseball!!!
