Can’t believe we didn’t send a message against the Rockies 
Unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
Farrell gave up a 2-run walkoff yesterday.
Tonight he K's the first two hitters, gives up a single/slash error by Javy (it was crushed, Javy made a great play but threw high) and Fowler, yes, Dexter Fowler, with two strikes, hits one one inch over Heyward's glove for yet another walkoff Homer.
Cards had no Yadi, no Pham, and no Norris, and sweep us with two walk offs.

Well......can't score for **** for two weeks, tonight we face the best ERA in the league and score 14. 
Solo homers for 3 weeks straight, tonight we get a 2-run KB, 3-run Javy, 2-run Happ, and 3-run Happ.

Darvish to the DL, just for the flu tho, will skip a start only.

Feast or famine.
Bryant with some savvy base running and the go ahead run.
7 arms took the mound
Bryant again got beaned. Someone has to protect our guys, messages need to be sent.

Needed that Sweep.
No reason they shouldn't sweep the Southsiders this weekend too.

Time to sweep them today!
Time to sweep them today!
Missed a chance at a DH sweep.
Justin Wilson walking in the winning run in the 11th.
But.......winning game two 10-0.
Happ homered in both games, including the Cubs' all-time 13,999th and 14,000th home runs in history.
Quintana with 7 shutout innings allowing only 1 hit.
Absolutely must win tomorrow with Darvish to take 3 of 4 from the Reds. Can't split with them.

Yu started slow with a 39 pitch first inning, but he threw 5 more great innings after that and we take 3 of 4.
Schwarber and Baez go back to back, Zobrist adds one of his own.
Bryant and Russell sit and we still win easy.
For all the struggles, lineup is starting to deepen. Almora hitting well, Happ is walking like crazy, Javy/Schwarber have stepped up, really just need Rizzo to be his usual self and we'll be in good shape.

yep! Just keep up with the pack. Once Rizzo come around. i think we will take control of the division. we gotta take at least 2 from Cleveland
Interesting last couple days. Darvish back on the DL, Chatwood a horrific first inning vs the Giants giving up 3 runs, then the Cubs scoring 8 unanswered, followed by a day game in Pitt winning that 7-0 with Mike Montgomery filling in for Yu.
Baez a 3-run bomb vs SF to break it open, Rizzo a solo bomb vs Pitt, Addison a pinch hit 2-run shot to extend a 1-0 game.
Almora playin so we'll, he's making the case to be the everyday CF, Happ may be relegated to splitting time with Heyward.
Now we get Lester/Hendricks/Quintana the next 3 games, need them to get a run goin, make up some ground.

Unreal 7th inning.
Cubs sit Bryant, Rizzo, and Zobrist to start the game after 14 innings last night.
0-0 game, Baez and Contreras start the inning with singles, first and third nobody out, Happ up batting right handed, first pitch Contreras starts and stops like he's gonna steal. (Lefty on the mound)
Next pitch, Contreras takes big lead, pitcher attempts the pickoff and Baez steals home (with Contreras then stealing second on the throw home)
Schwarber singles but is robbed of the RBI when the second baseman dives to keep the ball in the infield.
Zobrist comes in to bat for Addison who left with an injury to his left finger, pops up on the first pitch, caught by the second baseman and Contreras manages to tag and score on the "Sac Fly"
Schwarber then stole second base after that but was stranded.
2-0 in the 8th, 7 scoreless from Lester. Finish this off please.
