Jeff Sullivan

6:27

I expect...one more run

troybruno

what does Carson take seriously, non-family category?

Jeff Sullivan

6:27

His dog and gardening

Andrew

6:27

FG is going to need to invent a new stat for Skip & Shannon: Undisputed. HT/sec, or Hot-Takes per Second. My guess: 12. 12 hot-takes per second.

Sean Dolinar

6:27

Hot take metrics are probably the next big thing. You have to account for how scorching they are, too.

Aadik

6:27

WPA says 70% for Cubs - low or high? My gut says low, given Cubs defense and 2+ innings from Chapman

Jeff Sullivan

6:27

Low, because tonight's run environment should be low as well

6:28

Look at all of these long-suffering 28-year-old Cubs fans in a bar

Sean Dolinar

6:29

All is forgiven for Baez.

Jeff Sullivan

6:29

Baez leaves the yard. Kluber still inexplicably pitching

That run goes at least in part on Francona's hands

Kluber comes out now. Bizarre

This is one bittersweet standing ovation

Andrew

6:30

JAVY BAEZ REDEMPTION

Adam

6:30

why

The Hamburglar

6:30

Kluber still in the game?!

Deven

6:30

No one's concerned Chapman is overworked ?

Jeff Sullivan

6:30

Not at all

Craig Edwards

6:30

Francona losing some points here.

Jack

6:30

Will Maddon even consider sending Hendricks out for another or was he not going to pitch more than 4 no matter what?

Jeff Sullivan

6:31

What a strange, strange time for Francona to try to push a starter

Craig Edwards

6:31

After what he just saw from Kluber, not sure how Maddon levaes Hendricks in.

Jeff Sullivan

6:32

Cubs win expectancy at 85%. In reality it's probably closer to 90%

6:32

do you remember #guthriestillpitching?

5 Run Homer

6:32

Miller time, one guy too late

Hal

6:32

Ironic that after all this, waiting too long to go to Miller is what kills Francona

Jeff Sullivan

6:33

Well they were already losing by two

Zonk

6:33

As a Cub fan, I feel the win expectancy is 40%. Maybe 50%. 100+ years will do that to you....

Jeff Sullivan

6:33

Honestly it would've been hard to get Miller up and ready in time last inning

But still, yeah. Such a strange sequence of events

MLB Duck

6:33

Craig Edwards 6:04 Panic can also come in the form of doing nothing.

Duke

6:34

What point should they have replaced Kluber?

Jeff Sullivan

6:34

Probably the top of the fourth, *definitely* to start the fifth

Sean Dolinar

6:34

That might be hard to overturn.

Stevil

6:34

How many newspaper headlines read "Cubs Club Kluber" tomorrow?

Craig Edwards

6:35

Pretty sure they will be focusing on something else

kevinthecomic

6:35

Ross is putting on the catchers gear -- hendricks not coming back out

hurricanexyz

6:35

so bringing in Miller here is about as perfect a case of closing the barn door after the horses have left as you could ask for

another Ryan

6:35

Goes from setting a WS record for K's through 3 to tying (I presume) a WS record for least number of K's through 4

Craig Edwards

6:36

Miller can keep the horses close by if help is on the way.
