Trevor Bauer may not be the best pitcher, but he's the best pitcher to listen to talk about pitching.

Paul Swydan

11:10

Uh, no, that's Pedro Martinez. Bauer is just a guy who courts nerd attention.

Dave Cameron

11:10

Rajai Davis gives you the least confidence that a ball with 9 seconds of hang time will be caught.

Dock Ellis

11:10

Who's doing the chatting tomorrow?

Dave Cameron

11:10

Jeff and Craig.

archer

11:11

seems like davis makes everything an adventure, would love to be able to measure that, like fielder speed at moment of catch

Dave Cameron

11:11

We will be able to with Statcast eventually.

dan

11:12

NOW do you pinch hit?

Adam

11:12

Miller at 41 pitches, take him out?

Dave Cameron

11:12

Yeah, I'd go Allen here.

Oh, wait, Schwarber is up.

One more batter.

Bro Charboneau

11:12

Haha. Of course it's Schwarber at this moment.

Paul Swydan

11:12

Ben Zobrist wants another ring.

filihok

11:12

This is intense

The Hamburglar

11:12

I can totally see a Schwarber HR here

11:13

Cubs making Miller pitch in the zone, not swinging at balls that everyone else swings at

11:13

So is miller unavailable tomorrow at this point?

Paul Swydan

11:13

I wonder how many players have won rings in back-to-back years, but with different teams? Surely someone has this list handy?

Dave Cameron

11:13

Maybe just one batter tomorrow.

Russ

11:13

You guys, baseball is fun.

Bork jr

11:13

That was a rip

Sean

11:13

He wanted to hit that out

Dave Cameron

11:14

Miller wins the war.

2-D

11:14

Slider here come on Miller

HappyFunBall

11:14

Ooph

Paul Swydan

11:14

wow

5 Run Homer

11:14

*sad trombone*

11:14

Oooohh that seemed hittable

Zmccoy

11:14

Yikes that's filthy

nickg

11:14

That was so cool to watch.

Ghost of Gred Madduxes Past

11:14

Even bad Miller is good.

Paul G.

11:14

Mediocre Miller still pretty good

11:14

Despite the results, Miller looked rather mortal in those two innings

Dave Cameron

11:15

Cubs laying off pitches that everyone else chased.

vlock1

11:15

This is already one hell of a Series.

Poonrod

11:15

No Dave. He has been off tonight. It is not all cubs

Big Hurt's Shoulders

11:15

All things considered, having Miller go 40+ pitches is kind of a win.

HappyFunBall

11:15

Making Miller work means not having to face him tomorrow

Stephen

11:16

If nothing else though, the Cubs have really helped themselves with how much they made him work tonight. Almost 50 pitches in 2 innings. Won't be able to do much if anything tomorrow.
