Did Francona undo all the praise he's received this postseason. This is the ONE game where it was most important to have a fast hook.

Sean Dolinar

6:36

It's still winnable.

Jeff Sullivan

6:36

Well, no, they still got here in the first place

Biagini, Ph. D.

6:36

At least Francona didn't send in Ubaldo

Travis Wood Stan

6:36

Jeff, did you agree with Dave's assessment of the Chapman situation last night?

Jeff Sullivan

6:37

Yeah, I wouldn't have used him, but I don't think it's going to matter

Joe

6:37

Hot taek: Hendricks should come out for the fifth.

Jeff Sullivan

6:37

M-V-P chant right now. Probably for Bryant, and not the pitcher

Craig Edwards

6:37

Joe Buck agrees with you.

Guest

6:38

You gotta leave hendricks in for the W right?

Craig Edwards

6:38

Matheny?

vlock1

6:38

It's only three runs, guys.

Jeff Sullivan

6:39

Three runs is a pretty huge lead with Lester and Chapman available and 15 outs left

Ben Olson

6:39

Mike Matheny has joined the chat as "guest"

6:39

Three runs might as well be thirty, it's over fam.

Craig Edwards

6:39

Jinx much?

Bronn

6:40

Would any of the chat panel have started Miller tonight?

Jeff Sullivan

6:40

No, for me

Craig Edwards

6:41

nope.

Sean Dolinar

6:41

Craig, how far away are you from the epicenter in Wrigleyville? Have you boarded up your windows?

Joe Morgan

6:41

Do you keep Chapman in the 'pen until the 9th?

Jeff Sullivan

6:41

No chance

I get him going in the seventh

Craig Edwards

6:42

I'm about 1.5-2 mi. NW of Wrigley. Windows are fine. Expecting a lot of fireworks.

Jeff Sullivan

6:42

More scoring. 5-1 Cubs and this game is just about toast

Fitting that Miller should show some vulnerability

Triple deek

6:42

Kris Bryant is fast

Craig Edwards

6:42

He does a lot of things really well.

Phil

6:43

So if Lester locks this down 'til Chapman, is he the MVP? Cubs don't have an obvious candidate.

Craig Edwards

6:43

Bryant?

Jeff Sullivan

6:43

So many World Series MVP questions. I didn't realize people cared so much about the World Series MVP!

Adam

6:43

Fireworks already going here. Less than half a mile from Wrigley.

Owen

6:44

"Continue to breathe, man"-- THIS is why everyone loves David Ross. Can't get that kind of veteran advice from just anyone.

Sean Dolinar

6:44

Stay safe tonight, Chicagoans! (regardless of the final outcome.)

Jeff Sullivan

6:44

Without that advice, Rizzo would be dead!

Yo-Yo

6:44

Well, can't complain about Francona on that one. That was just great hitting and baserunning against an amazing pitcher.

El Dragon

6:44

I don't leave Hendricks in for the W, I leave Hendricks in because he just pitched his best inning, and we don't know what Lester is gonna be like out of the pen.

Craig Edwards

6:45

Impossible to know what would have happened had he come in earlier though.

Fred

6:45

World Series MVP is the only one that matters.
- Giants fans explaining why Bumgarner is better than Kershaw

Jeff Sullivan

6:45

Just for the record, it doesn't really matter that Hendricks just threw his best inning. Those things have a way of not carrying over
