They had a chance bottom of 9th and had s***ty at bats against a dead tired Chapman.

Its amazing Chapman pitched better after giving up the HR than Allen and Shaw. Indians continually look like they want to make it close......but then wet themselves

I don't mind Rizzo, but his putting his hands on his head with the OMG reminds me of actors when they win an Academy Award and go through the "I have nothing prepared, I never thought I would win" phony routine.

Great point. Good post.

This. A million times, this.

 

 

That Davis home run was a complete fluke. The Cubs just flat out wanted it more and are the better team.

 

When you have Goliath down on the ground, you better put the dagger through his skull. The tribe couldn't do that.

Inning reminds me so much of game 4 vs Giants. Hard hit grounders placed perfectly

He didn't pitch that well. Kipnis had the best approach but the other AB's were bad. The best approach to take as a hitter there is to work the count and keep fouling off pitches until he hangs a slider. He was throwing a lot of them.

Also as you guys mentioned, why did Shaw pitch outside to Zobrist knowing that's where he was aiming? And why weren't they shaded defensively after seeing it?

Santana couldn't have asked for a bigger meatball

I seriously thought Kipnis at least doubled off him on that ball he fouled off.

Yep the pitch before scared me. Can't throw same pitch three straight times to him

Need 2 too tie 3 too win.

The Cubs just flat out wanted it more...

I was saying this the entire game here while watching.

Looks like they should have gone to Bauer earlier.

Here we go. Bloop and a blast.

4-5-6 coming up. Not over yet, but pretty much over.

3 too win.

Do it now.

I'm confused why he was left in after Schwarber rips one and Bryant nearly homers.

Napoli is due... he's like 0 for 27 this game.

He's pitched well in the series. The problem is that as the series prolonged, the Cubs got more looks at these guys. I don't think it's a coincidence why the Cubs have hit much better in the past 3 games.

This was set up as another epic collapse, the Trine needed to do something in the 9th.

 

The Cubs got to Kluner, Miller, and Shaw. As Hawk would say, tip your cap.

lol Carl Edwards Jr might be the guy to win the Cubs the World Series.

Napoli bad AB

Napoli with one hell of a night to forget.

You suck Napoli

They should have propped up a mannequin at the cleanup spot.

f*** Rizzo sick of hearing Fox kiss his ass.
