Yesterday reminded how electrifying playoff games at Wrigley are. LFG! Close it out today
Let’s fly that W in October! Can’t wait for 2 pm
Hoping we can bury Cease early to give Imanaga a safe cushion to work with when he eventually comes in. Imanaga has been a bit homer heavy recently, but maybe the fact that the Pads don’t hit lefties well might balance it out.
Let’s go Cubs!!!
Is it confirmed that Imagna is coming in after opener?
It’s a beautiful day to win a ballgame
Let’s go Cubs!!!
See you guys at Wrigley!
It’s gonna be Shota post unc (Kittredge) so let’s hope the ball stays on the ground today
How’s the wind?
LFG
Normally wfh. quite upset I had to come into the office today. they’re going to be upset when I have the game on my phone at my desk.
worth it. Go Cubs Go!
Just like yesterday

Gotta come in with the small ball today due to the wind.

Blessed be thy Cub.
It would help a lot if Tucker managed to actually do something today
I’m going to this as a birthday present for myself
Michael Busch is going to hit a leadoff home run off of Dylan Cease.
Wind has been blowing in consistently all year for 3 years now at Wrigley. Is there some sort of explanation for this?
Ready for the Cubs’ first playoff series win since the insanity that was the 2017 NLDS.
I have an important meeting with myself and Cubs Radio starting at 2 pm.
As a reminder, this ABC / ESPN crew is pretty awful… so find a good sync point between The Score and the telecast or prepare for the torture.
I don’t know how I feel about this game. Cease is either gonna be out by the third inning or go seven scoreless.
Cubs
Taylor McGregor is on the Det/Cle game. Wtf! She should be on the Cubs game! 🙁
Saw on MLB network that the Cubs have struggled against high fastballs in the second half of the season. That was Pivetta’s plan of attack and it was pretty effective. Cease will try the same for sure. My hope is since Cease doesn’t have the control Pivetta has we can get some walks and force some hitters’ counts.
I think either the cubs win this game, or they lose. Better yet, I think the padres either lose this one or they win it.
Step on their damn necks.
On a bus that progressively fills up with more and more cubs jerseys as we go down the route. This is fun.
Why are we doing a bullpen game for the fucking playoffs!?
Wonder if the Padres will throw King out there if Cease isn’t playing well. Maybe tomorrow if they win today and Darvish isn’t doing well
Cease will have a short leash. Jumping on him early would do wonders for today. Force them to go to that elite bullpen early to stretch it as thin as possible
Not a fan of Happ hitting 3rd
Take care of business today. Go Cubs.
Just tried to tune in to pregame on Marquee – ooops! I forgot about the xfinity situation and I would have to pay for a higher tier starting today.
What’s the wind doin’?

Got some pretty decent seats. Hoping for a W today!
I know I’m late to the party, but why no Imanaga?
Javy put the Tigers in the lead!
I’ll always support javy
Happ hitting 3rd despite
1-21 with 10 Ks vs Cease
0-4 w 3 Ks yesterday
Make it make sense
