And On The Seventh Game……
No better time for the Cubs to extend their record of suckitude. Maddon is riding Chapman harder than Stix riding hoes in the whorehouse after he finally gets released. Ok, I reached for that one…..
Anyone watching this game tonight? What sweet irony it would be if Cleveland blew a 3-1 lead….

That image of Huddy’s “balls dancing in the dirt” could be sold to some porn maker, featuring a Miss Pigpen rolling around in the mud and Huddy jumping into the action.
What the bloody fuck?
What’s with closers taking it out on their women: Benitez, Chapman, and now Familia.
Fat pitch down the middle that Baez fouled.
Another idiotic move on a 3-2 pitch…
He was going to get a meaty pitch and just needed a fly ball…
Wow, safety squeeze. Fail. I give ’em credit for the try…
This game is pretty damn cool…
Fuck this. Maddon gives away an out with a runner on 3rd. Fucking idiot.
If it’s a safety squeeze, why do it with 2 strikes instead of earlier?…
The runner wasn’t on 3rd when there was less than 2 strikes.
Ok, thanks. Then it WAS a dumb move; mostly downside on that one…
There’s something nice about not having the 2016 Giants in this game…
No there isn’t.
well, it sure is relaxing……
Chapman will get blamed for the inevitable loss. But this is all on Maddon.
C’mon Chuck, you know Maddon will get all the blame…
If I’m a Cubs fan, I’m making sure I’ve got my Depends on straight right now…
good one
I cannot even begin to fathom bringing in Chapman.
Chapman is looking Casilla-ish right now…
THAT was the Cubs’ chance. Chapman is gassed.
Montgomery should be in. Wasn’t he stellar against us?
Kipnis HR. I’m calling it.
ok…wrong
Chapman staying in here is managing by contract…
You can have Chapman. I wouldn’t pay a ton for him. I’d rather have Jansen…
Totally agree…plus rub it in with the Fodgers…
I am tired of two things that get harped on: pitch counts and pitch speed. I don’t care.
Jesus. This is insanity.
oh fuck me with the tarps
It’s barely even raining? Are you kidding me? The heavy shit looks like it’s a good 30 minutes away.
This is perfect…disaster. not that much rain…
I might as well go to bed and set the alarm for 2 fecking a.m.
wimps
I can’t believe Chapman got through the inning.
Bunting is retarded in that spot. The first attempt is on a 3-2 count? Baez hitting a fly ball or a fucking grounder scores the run.
Fans from both teams, hoping to break their respective losing streaks, have called on the Comish to call the game.
Rajai fouled off a bunch of FBs before he got one he could hit, and he had it timed. But I think that AB forced Chapman to burn through what he had in the tank tonight. What an AB.
it was an incredible at bat.
I just checked. 4 foul balls before, on a 2-2 count, he got the one he could hit.
And Maddon has fucked up the rest of his pen by showing absolutely no confidence in them. My man Carl Edwards should have been in instead of Chapman….
Based on the Doppler, it’s a very small cell moving thru. There is a huge storm way to the west but that appears to be a couple hours away. This should be a short delay.
You know that huge rain band is going to be coming into play before this game ends…
they’ll get this in….before “tonight”…in Reykjavik…
It certianly could if this game goes a few more innings. That’s why I don’t get them stopping it for such a small, insignificant cell.
Send the fucking runner.
Didn’t they say this catcher is no good?
Smart running there.
It sure was.
Zo-best
There you go. Effram Zimbalist Jr!!!
Conga line time!
Montero: What a fucking game!
Could be one of the best game 7s ever.
That one in KC in 2014, of course, was better…
Craziest would be if CLE rallies to win; then again, CHI could bust it open right here.
Game 7 in 2014 was a beautiful game. wtf happened to Heyward? He can’t hit a lick. He looks like he’s afraid to be at the plate these days. Come on Clevelanders.
My God, Heyward sucks.
Heyward. What a disaster. They have 7 more years on that deal
Let’s tie it. And play 2 for Ernie Banks.
I thought this guy was a NASCAR driver.
That’s his day job
Cubs about to shed their Lovable Losers cloak…
let’s hope they don’t become obnoxious like those in a certain NE city near Cape Cod
Chickens and counting and all that
Jesus.
Guyer MUST take
Rajai is up!
C’mon, Rajai, hit a HR just to keep the fans in KC happy as champs for a few minutes.
Oh my.
This is fucking nuts.
Now they bring in Monty.
Who are these Cubs relievers?
Related to the Giants’ relievers?…
Definitely now one of the all time great games, given the situation…
Just tie it. Who needs an offseason?
One thing we always knew about Rajai–he can run.
This kicks ass on just about every Super Bowl except maybe 3 or 4…
Cubs win !
Cubs win !
Cubs win !…
well, now…
The Cubs and their fans, don’t have to say wait’ll next Century anymore.
I think there’s a party going on now in Chi-town…
Great game.
Great theater, great suspense.
Baseball is the best game, proved again…
Yep!
I like Kris Bryant. A smile as he makes the last play.
Cubs win!!!!!!
Somewhere in hell, my grandfather is smiling.
I think about 6 million Chicagoans are calling in sick tomorrow.
Steve Bartman in the lead float come parade day would only be fitting..
with bodyguards
Mrs. James is very happy.
Time for a shot to salute the Cubs and all my relatives (living and dead) who are in heaven right now.
We need Macdog for a hed more clever than Cubs Win!
This game rivals the Giants v. Cards last NLCS game in 2014, the Ishi HR for the pennant game, for excitement and suspense, IMO…
except a game-winning blast is such a KAPOW
g’night, girls
I just tweeted that Hot Stove League begins now and gave an obvious reading assignment:
http://bit.ly/2fbtTeg
I see Chevrolet is letting their VP of Marketing introduce the MVP instead of some schlub salesman from Sandusky.
I still have a pic of that scene on my phone. That shit cracked me up to no end…
