I'm loving this.

I'm loving this.

If this cubs team can score runs without hitting HRs and give lots of pesky ABs like this, they will win a lot of games.

 

[Rabbuk]

still no KB?

Yup. Work those counts and make the guy pay. We're darn near unstoppable this way.

Maybe tomorrow, per Joe

Sounds like it’s expected he’ll be back, per Joe

I'm amazed that these Brewer announcers get paid for this stuff.
Better than the Cards crew, but still bad.

It’s refreshing to see Darvish get through 6 innings without any issues.

It is, Lester had an ERA in the mid 6's his first month with the Cubs, and then settled down. Hopefully Darvish follows a similar path starting today.

JFC did he get pinched on that Sogar at bat.

That's as bad as I have ever seen. guy walked on a 1-3 count

 

[CyJack13]

With the rate the bullpen is going, the Cubs aren't going to have enough arms to finish this game.

 

[CycloneErik]

Hah. Leave Javy a chance to do something big. Dumb Brewers.

 

[FerShizzle]

Carl was pretty filthy there. That cutter of his is lethal.

You dummy...

 

[CycloneErik]

So, 1 game back after a steady but not dominant start to the year, and we completely own Milwaukee this year.
I think we're in a good place.

 

[CycloneErik]

Good to see the starters putting things together, too.

If that place is The Friendly Confines, then it's always a good place.

Hard to play great in 30 degree weather.
