Niese pitching a great game

[diamond]

At least on keymoments, getting out of jams.

[Terrapin Station]

No kidding. Was just thinking the same thing.

[Brock Landers]

Its the cubs who can't hit their way out of a wet paper bag

[Cougar Bait]

Bases loaded one out, would have had at least one in that inning, probably 2 with Nady and Ramirez both failing big time. Niese is over 90 pitches, he'll be gone the next inning.

[diamond]

True, still strong of Niese surviving all those innings, considering cubs had men on base every inning.

[pavyracer]

Both teams suck. Can't hit anything for a run.

[diamond]

Wow, Niese even made a single now

[obamaismyuncle]

Niese has dodged a few bullets

[Brock Landers]

This Cubs team did nothing to improve in the off season. Bullpen is a sad story and they added big bad Marlon Byrd to the lineup.

Fukking play Tyler Colvin every day.

[Cougar Bait]

I agree with Colvin, been a fan all year. Kid has it.

[diamond]

CUbs with 19 men left on base so far in this game. Bases loaded now, 2 out. That Niese single could hurt quite a few.

[pavyracer]

How can you leave 19 men on base in 5 innings and not score?

[Brock Landers]

Sickening the Cubs are losing this game, Both teams are very poor

[Brock Landers]

Cubs have left 8 on base in the game

Team LOB - 8.

[diamond]

Cubs sort of survive, giving up only 1 run that inning.
