Chicagos Cubs vs. Arizona Diamondbacks: Rubber Match Edition

>(((Goldschmidt)))

Hello there, what did I miss?

>>77457427
1.5 hour delay before the game
Quintana got shelled in the 1st to make it 4-0 for Arizona
another delay (like 35 mins.) in the 2nd
Contreras hit a solo shot, 4-1
both teams have had further chances to score but got shut down

Worst girl, I'd rather fuck a horse.

I wonder if pro athletes feel relieved when the charity kid is not deformed, unresponsive, hopelessly retarded, or near death

>>77457499
How come Quintana and Duensing have been pitching today?

it's the only sneks anime girl I have, we dont have any from that MLB weeb calendar thing so we're stuck with her.

>>77457834
They have to be. I'd prefer unresponsive to the ones that give ear splitting screeches all the time though, if you flinch or react at all to them then it's seen as rude.

>>77457852
assuming you just mean 'how':
Quintana's worst start since joining the Cubs (probably worst of the year, at least in terms of ER)
but Duensing pitched a clean inning

D I N G E R S

>>77457852
Because they aren't pitched in a while, any other stupid questions?

HE'S AT IT AGAIN

HE CAN'T STOP

>>77457984
With how he's batting, he'll hit a walk off homer.

>it's a good strop episode

>4th pitcher this inning
>a new pitcher every batter

If Contreras does it again here...

>Bases loaded
>2 Outs
>Down by 1
>Contreras batting
HAPPENING?

not a grand slam, but fuck it

>>77458361
THE
ABSOLUTE
FUCKING
MADMAN

OLD MAN WILLY!

OLD MAN WILLY!

>>77458361
Yes.

Hot damn! Did not expect a comeback today.

Watch Schwarber hit this one into low orbit.

I think I've said it before but if we send Contreras back to Venezuela the place will be an economically stable democracy within a week

name a better catcher

>>77458397
And he strikes out

>review of the farm systems come out
>Cubs is ranked 3rd worst
>Cites players like Contreras being brought up and no longer in the system as a reason for why it's so bad.

why is baseball so complicated bros

>>77458443
During Tuesday's game, they ran a bit where a hospitalized kid drew a picture of of one of the ballplayers and the players had to ID who it was.

It crud crayon drawing of a black man with a really long neck, and everyone immediately went to Edwards Jr. He also came out onto the outfield to do some warm ups and throw some balls into the stands. The best of those was Almora Jr. when he threw a ball to a little kid, and then made absolutely sure the kid got it by just staring down the section for a good 5 seconds before nodding and heading out.

>Skeleton man gets pulled
FUCK

please don't rain again

>loaded bases
>no outs

also why does Chicago have two teams? Couldn't one of them be the Illinois Somethings, like the Astros/Rangers split?

Expected to miss the game due to work. Come home in time to see them lose horribly.
Are the Cusb back?

>Need to go through 7 batters to get back to Contreras
FUCK

>>77458816
Naming a team after the state is a more recent phenomenon. Teams with a 100+ year history like the cubs and whos prefer to keep that history.

This dude can't throw a strike

>>77458922
> implying you need to throw strikes against baez

>>77458816
Because why would we associate with the peasants downstate? Half of those shits are traitors who root for the tardinals.

Baez drew a walk! The absolute madman!

Please don't fuck this up.

justice has been served (with a side of hustle)

meme games are nice

man this game is great aside from the rain breaks

THE RIDE NEVER ENDS

WOW they tied it up?

>call a rain break
>it instantly stops

Ian happ and Bryant are trash lately. They both need a bench seat for a few games. They either homer or make an out. Usually strike out.

>rain delay
fuck these umps

Good this game is awash play it again it necessary

the refs need to call this game someone might get hurt
