“2-0 Braves.” – Boog
It’s been a while so I don’t really blame him for the mistake
PCA plates a run on a “Brewers Special”
Boog forgot who he hired by for a second
Ump is very inconsistent
Bloops are bloopin the right way!
Cb Bucknor is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get
Seiya getting two bad reads might’ve temporarily wiped *two* runs off the board: if he’d gotten to third on the blooper PCA might’ve been at second and both could’ve scored on Nico’s ball.
edit: make that *permanently*, not temporarily
i fucking love small ball so much
This is the game to pull us out of the slump!!
I’m a simple guy. If the cubs score, I’m happy.
making Strider work!
I blame the missing Mustache

cmon break it open
How about a home run now. So we all can just breathe for a bit.
Just going to cut Boog off when he was talking about the recent trends of pitching managers.
That was rude.
Strider was amazing in ’22 and ’23, but has been just a guy since his elbow injury.
He got TJ in mid-April of 2024 so the rehab from that really should be over and done with.
Kelly didn’t have a chance there…
walk castro you coward. you colin cowherd.
Maybe consider…walking a run in?
Jesus Christ man Kelly and Castro are so useless

God, Castro sucks.
The Chicago Cubs are allergic to hits with bases loaded. Dear lord.
Castro can play a bunch of positions. The problem is that he has a wRC+ of 27 as a Cub, so you can’t actually start him at those spots without giving up a lot.
just letting bad pitchers off the hook consistently.
I miss Kyle Tucker already
Would it kill this team to get a hit with runners in scoring position?
90% of the time we strike out with bases loaded

Fail to capitalize once again. Same story all fuckin season
lol it’s like they are allergic to getting a base hit with bases loaded
No disrespect to Castro but I would rather see him used a little less.

Castro is worthless
Rockies 7-8-9 are better than these three hitters.
Keep letting strider off the hook. Today’s Lineup is a black hole after Nico
Castro is hilariously bad
I would love to not make the playoffs and just get this season over with. The regression from pre ASG is too much for me to handle daily.
Now here comes the part where the Braves remember how to hit
Seiya should be in right field with Moises DHing…
holy shit my jaw dropped how Pete took that off the wall and threw in one motion
The offense failing to deliver a knockout blow either time the bases were loaded means that the tying run is in the batter’s box.
Nice play off the bounce by Pete
Love that Marquee found a 15 second spot in the action for another ad. /s
An “Ignacio” going by “Nacho” is about as remarkable as a “Robert” going by “Bob”.
Nachos the food are called nachos because [a guy named Ignacio](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignacio_Anaya) invented them.

Hey Cubs – that is what a 2 out RBI looks like
This episode of Bluey is called “A Two Run Lead Is Not Enough.”
