CUBS vs INDIANS -- Game 7 -- For All Da Marbles
-
Wow, who’d thunk it? Here we are Game 7 of the 2016 World Series. A few days ago the Cubs were down 3 games to 1, given up for dead, and here we are at Game 7. Can Kluber shutdown the newly revived bats of the Cubs? Can Hendricks and the entire Cubs pitching staff keep a leash on the Tribe long enough to let Chapman work his magic? One thing for sure, one of these two teams will put an end to long WS Championship droughts. And the reign of the 2015 World Champion Kansas City Royals will come to an end.
GO CUBS GO!
PLAY BALL!
-
FOWLER – KABOOM!! Nice leadoff.
-
After 1 it’s Cubs 1-0
-
Can’t believe Maddon didn’t start Ross behind the plate. Last game of his career.
-
@brooksmd Soon as I turned on the game Fowler pop one out…Ya never did ask me about the ghost of " DD " I referenced a few days ago. Maybe a fan of the 85’ Cards would just as soon forget, but I’ll bet not a one of em has. Who is this DD - ? None other than Don Denkinger…http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/6479266/v13062921/85-ws-gm-6-stlkc-denkinger-misses-the-call
I remember it like yesterday, there were 6 people in my living room & everyone’s butt came off the furniture at precisely the same split second & whooped out loud when Iorg dumped that game winner in right field in the 9th. cards never even showed up the next night. Not many get the chance to claw all the way back from down 3-1 but tonight’s the night for the Cubs IMO even if they need some Whizzo dust to make it happen.
-
I didn’t think for a minute that one run would win this game-schittzon !!
-
@globaljaybird Baez has some serious bat work to do to make-up for his 2 screw-ups tonite.
-
@brooksmd No freebies from last nite ??
-
Game is shaping up as a classic. And it’s already the 4th inning!
-
Glad I’m not the guy that makes the decision on when to change pitchers. Those 2 guys have a ton of weight on their shoulders tonite.
-
Rizzo taking one for the team.
-
@brooksmd Cubs laying off Kluber’s slider for the most part tonite.
-
Them .056 hitters will kill ya everytime.
-
@brooksmd If TF wants to win he’s gotta get Kluber outta there… Tonight his # is up…
-
@brooksmd Four innings and Kluber hasn’t recorded a single SO. Tired or Cubs ready for him this time?
-
go cubbies!!!
-
BAEZ KABOOM! That makes up for 1 of his 2 errors. Cubs 4-1
-
@brooksmd Yep…IMO
-
Unrelated, but hopefully it’s nothing. Embiid had a DNP tonight. Team said they were limiting his minutes tonight for some unexplained reason.
-
Ugh. Would’ve like to see another inning or two of Hendricks. Got jobbed on a couple pitch calls, but he was looking unhittable IMO.
-
Nice managerial action.
-
Lester can be wild as a March hare… Royals spanked his ass for 6 runs late in the 2014 WC game in KC … This late in the season on short rest is pushing him a lot.
-
ROSSSSSSSS!!! That is the most awesome homer since that dodger guy.
-
@DanR Could be an all time epic blunder if they blow this lead. Of course David Ross takes some of the pressure off even as I type!
-
CUBS Hittin on ALL Cylinders & Tribe gonna haftta tghten up them hips .
-
There will be a Heyward shirt burning ceremony sometime next February when it’s cold and we need some flames on the deck. Good god.
-
Ross had his bell rung PDG on that WP & did a helluva job redeeming himself wit da dinger IMO.
-
I’m back. Sisters finally arrived safely and been visiting with one eye on the game. Was really happy Ross got the dinger. Now why the heck didn’t lester go to 2nd on that comebacker?
-
Well at least he got the SO to end the inning.
-
@globaljaybird Been holding off on the adult libations but now that sisters are here I’m getting ready. Gonna try a new bottle of Crown Vanilla.
-
@brooksmd is it “the sisters”? Or your sisters?
-
Tempted to to go curl up in a corner. Nothing good can happen at this point. Holding my breath…
-
@Crimsonorblue22 My sisters from Topeka. Didn’t come to see me, but to see new great niece.
-
@DanR Come on, we got this. Can’t you smell the goat over them hot coals?
-
Im a hopeless optimist for any team except the cubs… feel pretty good but
-
@DanR Need to get this out.
-
Got to be kidding me.
-
Worst pitch chapman threw if irony matters
-
I said it early - now the shit is reeaaally on ! Maddon may have played his hole card too soon.
-
@DanR Davis was choked up so high the last place you want to put it is inside.
-
Hell, I actually feel better with the cubs on the ropes. Go cubs go!
-
omg…reminded me of mario’s shot in 2008…
-
@brooksmd No sweat, I had a double for ya already E & J on da rocks. Pourin ass ️ Could be a long night.
-
Or Memphis choking?
-
@DanR Burned it yet ?
-
@brooksmd I thought he was so high all he would do is foul those bbs off his dogs. Shows ya I know squat.
-
@globaljaybird using it for toilet paper tomorrow first unless he does something miraculous base running
-
Which he might lol
-
Bunt?
-
There’s a rule if tied after 9, the royals repeat!
-
All right. Have to stand up for the rest of this. Damn
