    This is literally the one situation where I like replay review. When umpires do a horrible job judging fair/foul on a HR call. The initial call was so bad, they didn't even need replay it to overturn. lol

      I just want to say that this is an ugly game from a uniforms perspective.

        I beg to differ.

        It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

            Strap it in for the Cub bullpen, lol.

            Cishek throws 3 pitches. Gives up a homer and a double (I have to assume the 3rd pitch was a slider in the batter's box but I'm listening on radio). Maybe Joe Maddon'll realize that you can't pitch the same pitcher in every single game?

            To make matters worse, the Cubs have Derek Holland and Tyler Chatwood warming up. In a 2-1 game.

                The Braves uniform is okay. I think the Phillies should burn these again.

                      Oof. Craig Kimbrel.

                      Two homers and a BB. Zero outs recorded. Bullpen has been single-handedly destroying the Cubs' season from within.

                      EDIT: Reflecting on this game...removing Jon Lester after 94 pitches and 7 shutout innings was clearly a mistake. And that's clearly on Joe Maddon.

                          Let's win the rubber match tomorrow boys.
                          I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                          I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                            Christian Yelich has already tied his home run total from his MVP season.

                              I suppose this team just has to score 10 runs a game for the rest of the season. Completely doable with this offense and the juiced balls.

                                You mean the team that just scored 3, 5, and 5 runs against not-great pitching?
