>rustled


damn shame jay got himself picked off - dumbass

lol can't chicago afford gardeners? the wall is covered in weeds

how the fuck did bryant score damn

Why does Tommy Joseph have two first names and why is he so goddamn ugly?

By touching home plate

Fuck ToJo he literally gets worse with every series

lads are the cubes back? we scored in the first and didnt allow a run!!!!!

Lackey is pitching well from the first inning

what year is this?

cubes pitchers all take real nice looking swings.

especially since lackey and lester have played in the AL most of their lives and they actually get hits from time to time.

Fuck the Cubs
Fuck Shitcongo
Fuck Arrietta
Fuck Lackey
Fuck Lelster
Fuck Contreyas
Fuck John Jay
Fuck Addison Russel
Fuck Kyle Schwarber
Fuck Baez
Fuck Goats

I have to agree lad but tell me, why so much ass pain?

The corpse of John Lackey is gonna shus us out

>pivetta vs. Strasburg tomorrow

kill me

KILL ME

NUKE ME

He should be no hitting you, but Herrera had to go and be a faggot

I guess i'll just have to get used to the pain if I want to follow the phillies.

Freddie what the fuck happened. You were one of the best defensive SSs in the league

there's the lackey I know

Franco stronk

FRANCGOD!!!!!!!!

tommy joseph kind of looks like pat burrel

FUCK YOU LACKEY. you could have hit him in the face so he got sent to the DL

Come on Freddeh

manfred will suspend you for that now he is being so serious

Gee it's another 2-out pitcher hit

HOLY FUCK SHJFDKDSF::LKFSDKK

Aaron "1-time all-star" Altherr

How da fuck does Lackey get so many SOs? Does his retardation affect the batters?

the ball gets lost in his teeth

It's something!

fuckin phillies

Friendly reminder that without the Phillies there would be no Sandberg in the HOF

lead was fun while it lasted

Phillies plz it isnt the 9th inning yet don't blow it yet.

2 men on and Wizzo bitches out.
The shock is shocking

Cubs bullpen is too fucking good please leave Lackey in

LOL what the fuck

>brian duensing warming up
Why?

not sure why mememaddon left him in at 96 pitches


but youre welcome

>tfw youre too smart to manage

Hmm pinch-hitter for Eflin? I don't know what i'd do here

joe wants to lose the game
another maddon leaves the starter in for too long and fucks the whole game episode

I swear sometimes a child could manage a game better than joe.

bunt the man on first to second to avoid a double play

>duensing LUCK

oh boi

that was needed

JUST KLL ME

Well, that was a heartbreaker. God damn it, Galvis.

Huh

Cubs have to be the luckiest franchise in baseball

saying this 2 years ago would have been unthinkable

feels good man

>108 year championship drought
>luckiest franchise in baseball
Pick one

but would a child think to bring the zoo and a magician to Wrigley to cheer up the team

So much fucking ^this

>umpball'd into an NLCS victory
>half the Indians starters down in the world series
>weather delay ruins the Indians momentum in game 7

fuck y'all

stay mad faggot

every team to win a championship in the last 100 years has had a few balls bounce their way

shut up faggot

OUT on replay

what the fuck is that shit

the ball was in the glove but he hadn't grasped it

New book coming out:
How To Introduce Replay And Ruin Another Sport For Dummies

>grimm

>duensing
>grimm
Are the cubs trying to lose?

Jay with a good throw for a change

>nice

If ur a good enough team that shit shouldnt affect you.
Umps wanted to hand the Yankees the 2001 Eries becuz Muh Patriotism 9/11.
Diamondbacks were too good for that shit and shut it down.

Fuck you cubs faggots

> umpballed to NLCS victory
> completely outscore the dodgers by like 16 runs
> destroy their best starter

Whatever ass blasted faggot

grimm has been good

get grimm off the mound and on a bus to desmoines

>good at giving up runs

>ERA 7.71
No.

Did cubs catcher just shout FUCK! or am I hearing things?

he doesnt speak english

>>umpball'd into an NLCS victory

>beat doyers by combined score of 31-17
>let 3rd string catcher hit grand salami
>shutout supposed GOAT Kershit 5-0 in deciding game

Go cry in ur beer with AGon

publicly executed at sundown

No

mememaddon managing to lose

>wait for grimm to load up the bases before pulling him

Get this shitter off the team. Jesus.

i swear to god Joe is going to be the one factor preventing a dynasty

you dumb fucks joseph will strike out swinging. Cubs fans think you knows the phils lineup better than Maddon

thank you for not being shit today pedro

fuck

stretch

Worthless fuck back to AAA with you

>It's a Phillies load the bases with 2 outs and then strike out episode

I hate reruns.

Why is Tommy Joseph retarded?

One step back, two steps forward.
The more Tommy Joseph strikes out, the faster Rhys Hoskins gets promoted.

Concussions

Eflin made it to 7 that's a good sign

that was pretty cool galvis

can't remember the last phillie starter to make it 7 full innings

DINGER

jr skeletal finally gives up a run

had to happen eventually

>fug

RUPP!!!!
