J/K CUBS WIN SUPER CUBS SUPER BOWL
Frustrated Fan (@frustratedfan.bsky.social)
#FlyTheW! The Cubs survive a 9th inning #FakeRally and hold on for a 4-3 win over Atlanta!
Frustrated Fan (@frustratedfan.bsky.social)
Daniel Palencia have an easy inning challenge (level - impossible)
Frustrated Fan (@frustratedfan.bsky.social)
The Cubs offense has been asleep since the 3rd inning so they’re going to have to try to hang on to a 4-3 lead heading into the 9th.

Jose Hernandez played for 9 different teams and played every position except pitcher and catcher during his career. He’s a grid superhero.

I picked this one, who played almost the same years (1972-1982) as the one I wanted (1969-1981). www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/ro.... And there’s another one who played earlier in the 60s!

It was 6-2 when I turned it on so I only saw the good parts.

Repeating - let’s walk this off in the 10th inning, Cubs. I’m fucking serious this time.

Unfortunately he did not change his evil ways at the plate

Justin Turner would’ve hit into a DP so Santana striking out is actually an improvement

Relief pitcher with a 7.32 ERA? Yeah, this one’s going into extra innings.

If the Cubs had any games left against the Brewers in September it would at least be somewhat possible to catch up. But without those head to head opportunities they’re just playing for WC1.

Porter Hodge has an ERA near 7 so if he started a game against the Cubs he’d go six innings and give up two runs max.

So this year Cubs will have a player from the 2016 Dodgers postseason roster and a player from Cleveland’s 2016 postseason roster but no players from their own 2016 postseason roster.

He pulled a “fuck the closer” with that big hit in that game, plus he tripled and was aboard for the ride on Randall Simon’s pinch hit HR in Game 3 in Miami.

I just checked and Nick Castellanos went 0-3 tonight so it’s probably a no.

The Cubs offense has been unable to add on since the 5th inning, so they’ll have to hang on to a one-run lead in the bottom of the 9th.
