    Glad Webb was credited with the win in that one. He was nails with those two K's in the bottom of the ninth. Showed some of the moxie I've been hoping for from the pen and the team as a whole.

    With Carson's amazing eye behind the plate, you'd think that would be an automatic challenge. Glad it didn't cost us.

    Agree. Unless Shaw is hurt, why Dean in that situation? Odd choice, Craig.

    Bregman didn’t even take the bat off his shoulder that plate appearance. Just wow, watched three strikes.

    Can I tell you how much I hate the Brewers? And hate losing to them even more?

    Wonder what Lester or Lackey are up to? They seem to have the temperament of "why not....let's give it a go?"

    At this rate you'd think it was the Cubs players (as opposed to ISU MBB) incorporating MMA and cage fighting into their routines.

    MLB needs to be better. Now the logic is "challenge and see what happens" similar to "sue the guy and see if you win something in the court of law" based on a technicality. The umpire crew, including those who are reviewing, need to be held accountable.

    So who on our starting staff hasn't been on the IL? This is in "cursed" territory.

    Have to give Cabrera credit. He avoided the big inning and came back strong the last two. Get through five with a five run lead and it feels good. Not great, but good.

    After two outs, that inning was PAINFUL to watch. Should never have come to that. Lucky to only give up two runs.

    Cubs pitching....just throw strikes. Please. Walks equal runs (for opposing teams, anyway).

    When you constantly get behind in the count, bad things happen. Insanity that our pen cannot pitch like professionals.

    Glad to be wrong.....and glad we were playing the Rockies given they walked in the winning run.
