Phillies now up 7-5 after being down 0-5 to the Twins

This kind of series could cool off the Tigers the next few days and we don't have to worry about them anymore

Newcomb with some stones today.......Thanks Duke

Unbelievable to sweep them when so many began writing eulogies. Incredible team.

Offense really showed up. We didn't even pitch that well, but we scored enough and the back end of the bullpen was nails.

Now lets go get those friggin Cubby bears!!!!!!

We're gonna be up 5 regardless, but 5.5 sounds better.

Twins have just blown a 5-0 lead

now 7-5 in the eighth

scored four in the sixth, three just now

going to bot 8

If I see Richards come in I’m going to lose my s%*#.

Fortunately for once Will did the right thing by keeping Newcomb in the game.

Hey Cubbies, want some??

Game might still be going if he used Richards.

They picked up Burke which was great to see. That will be a nice short flight back to Chicago.

in a situation when the primary backend guys were surely unavailable...Richards next man in again

and Newcomb only two homers allowed over nearly 70 ip

two sweeps of the Tigers now

5.5 games is somehow the largest lead in the AL.

The nice thing is it gives you some real room to stink without necessarily losing the lead.

well when the choice was essentially him or Richards

7 games over has been the high point all season

hope it ends up better than the same record entering most recent Red Sox series

Have Cubs' starters been announced?

Imanaga Peterson/Holmes Gausman

vs. Castillo Fedde S.Smith/Urquidy

I meant for once today. Did’n t agree with Will obsession with Splits, and the early depleting of our bench today.

what are you doing, Royce Lewis?

also made an error in the field last inning

maybe out twice...didn't seem to realize Stott was going to make the play until it was too late

We should be able to hit some dingers against Imanaga.
