Great work by Montgomery, damn. Alright, one run boys. I know nothing of this Edwards Jr. He seems young, and nervous. d2, what's his deal?

Edwrads has electric stuff, very tough to hit. Control can be his issue. Past starter, looks like future closer. He's been mostly good in big spots. But anything past 2 innings is seriously pushing it.

My guess is David Ross is the emergency pitcher. NO way they can ask Lester, they won't.

Don't know much either. Seems like he has elite strikeout stuff, but can be wild.

Rizzo is garbage. Pure trash. Kid has no clue.

Basically yeah. Had some crazy minor numbers. He allowed like 1 HR in 250 innings. He's very tough to square up.

woke up and game still on, good stuff

**stealthyburrito** · 10-11-16, 01:13 AM

Lol what

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:13 AM

Yeah he got it.

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:13 AM

thats a catch, fuk

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:13 AM

Great catch.

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:14 AM

cubs hitting the ball hard in extras, but nothing to show for it.

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:14 AM

Montgomery is batting???? I think LaStella still available? I guess they don't want to burn him.

**Cuse0323** · 10-11-16, 01:15 AM

Man, Cubs hitting it hard just can't get some to fall. Aaaah I know they lose since I really need this one, and they got my hopes up.

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:15 AM

Montgomery hitting.

**Cuse0323** · 10-11-16, 01:15 AM

No point in wasting a batter with 2 outs, no one on.

Do they have any bench player to PH?

**lakerboy** · 10-11-16, 01:16 AM

Now it's dragging on

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:16 AM

I don't think that means Montgomery stays, but maybe?

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:16 AM

Belt leading off, can we just start the AB with the count 3-2 to speed things up?

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:17 AM

I think LaStella and Ross is it. Lester and Lackey as pitchers to hit.

I hear ya pal. My whole night/week hinges on this game. Why did Bryant hit that homer if they going to lose?

I would think they would have had Hendricks hit if they didnt want to burn another position player.

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:18 AM

Montgomery stays. What a job he's done no matter what happens here.

Works for me. Hopefully he gets in the zone tonight, but the ump is calling strikes balls. The Cubs are making contact, just one of those damn things when they aren't falling.

This could be the end. Posey faaack.

Montgomery with the easy out. Come on boysssssss.

Shiiiit, beautiful so far.

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:18 AM

They know asking Edwards to get more than 3 outs is asking a lot.

**jeffchitown** · 10-11-16, 01:18 AM

Yawwwn cubs players have to be sleepy

No. He got hurt and is a terrible hitter. Lester or Lackey are better.

**stealthyburrito** · 10-11-16, 01:19 AM

Did Edward jr. metamorphize into a white guy or is Montgomery still out there?

**senseionline** · 10-11-16, 01:19 AM

giants hit a homer to seal the game

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:19 AM

This definitely has to be Montgomery's last, right?

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:20 AM

2 pitches 2 outs, montgomery can go all night.

**d2bets** · 10-11-16, 01:21 AM

Rizzo needs to let 2B take that.

**krk1030** · 10-11-16, 01:21 AM

Cubs hit bullets right at people, giants all weak tappers.

But somehow one becomes a hit.

**Cuse0323** · 10-11-16, 01:21 AM

Fckin lucky bullshit that will win the game. Should be easy 2nd basemen to 1st but here we go

**stealthyburrito** · 10-11-16, 01:22 AM

Here comes Connor the fukkin savior

Exactly. Rizzo is a disaster tonight.
