Chris Sale

Looked like he rolled his ankle. Painful. But will be our for a week or two at most and fully recover quickly.

Pretty awful AB for Leury but oh well

Just Ricky things

Huge K by Marshall. New ballgame! Not the best outing for Gio but could be much worse

This ump is not helping things

Should be ball 4

He’s awful

Glad we have a pitcher up with 2 outs after a triple. Fuck the NL

This is getting ridiculous. He's not getting any calls.

I could just picture the smug shit-inning grin on all of the Cubs fans I know after that dreadful two pitch swing in the first inning (Eloy bases-loaded DP followed by Schwarber HR). But pitching kept us in it and Eloy got to be the big hero against his former team. Great bullpen mgmt by Ricky makes me almost overlook the blunder in putting in Moncada (who needs to REST), and great performance by the bullpen and, with one notable exception, the defense. Go Sox! Let’s see Giolito get #11 tomorrow!

Wow Colomé is filthy tonight

Man it would have to feel so good hitting a go-ahead HR against the team that traded you. Especially after the 1st inning double play

100% correct alonso had a good AB anyways. Hope it puts him back on the right track

Eloy!!!!!!!! Legend

McCann is ridiculous this year. Love it

Well, we got out of it with a beautiful DP. Props to Ricky. If we don’t score here, I think we keep Marshall at least for Baez, right?

Staggering the hitters L/R/L/R is intelligent. Ricky could stand to learn something about lineup construction. also, you gotta be fucking kidding me

Nah right move

Wow why would you ever pitch Schwarber a strike lol? Good move putting Jace in and taking him out when appropriate. My disdain for Fry and Ricky led me to be wary of what turned out to be a good decision

Fry? Ricky still managing the Cubs in his heart

Damn two quick outs. Well-hit by TA though

Marshall for the 8th? I have a feeling we might see Herrera instead though

Bummer has tripled Nova’s strikeout total in fewer than half the innings pitched- and that includes seeing pinch hitters instead of pitchers and their sub-.200 no. 9

Yeah, he’s been calling it all game against Sox hitters, but now the Cubs are batting. Doesn’t matter; Cubs squander opportunity anyway

Sigh. At least it’s tied.
