August 6, 20214 yr Hendriks nutted up and got the win, appropriately. Goodwin with another huge hit. Lynn pitched well again, and was robbed of the win.

August 6, 20214 yr Kimbrel looked bad, but maybe the only redeeming thing about his outing today is that Romine's HR had an xBA of .170 and probably isn't a homer without some assist from the wind. Still, he has to be better. His curveball actually looked good in his first outing, but hasn't looked good in his 2 outings since. He didn't pay for it in the Cleveland outing, but he paid for it today.

August 6, 20214 yr Give the Chub fans something to cheer about in a lost season, then proceed to win big. Theo quit on them, As did Len Kasper. As did 80 percent of their fans in Wrigley after the top of the tenth But damn Kimbrel. Also need to do better with risp

August 6, 20214 yr Just now, bmags said: You can feel bad about it without going to the pathetic depths of that game thread fair enough... i didnt post but like twice in the game thread. but game threads are typically overly emotional.
August 6, 20214 yr It’s not often we get to see a player have a career worst outing, and he barely knows his team mate’s names.
August 6, 20214 yr I actually think this could be one of those wins that energizes a team and gets them going.
August 6, 20214 yr Didn’t watch. Looks like the ending was super exciting from the box score. That’s all you can ask for as a fan- shame I missed it!

August 6, 20214 yr Gavin sheets single knocked in what ended up being the winning run in the 8-6 victory. That kind of of got lost in the midst of that home run barrage.

August 7, 20214 yr I feel like the thread title needs a question mark on it, lol. the epitome of the phrase “a win is a win”.
August 7, 20214 yr The backup players keep getting the job done. Some of the regulars...not so much. I do like the versatility that Vaughn has been developing as it really helps in these NL games.
