  1. We also lost game one of the 2015 NLDS and 2016 WS. I ain’t worried. That being said…..I’d really like to see us score more than 3 runs in a playoff game this year lol

  2. This game, especially the first few innings , showed you how different these two teams offensive philosophies are.

    Cubs – HR or Nothing

    Brewers – put the ball in play, get runners on, drive runners in.

  3. Must win Monday. Is it bad that I think Rea might be a better option than Shota? Also the bats need to start manufacturing stuff other than solo homers.

  4. If you told me before the game that we would hit 3 HRs and that we would hold them scoreless after the 2nd I would think we would be in pretty good shape.

  5. Best out of 5 not best out of 1. Shake it off and win Monday, go to Wrigley tied 1-1.

  6. take away 2 innings of just complete ridiculousness that was pretty competitive. feeling good about monday

  7. I think the Brewers should party hard tonight. Very hard, preferably without hydrating.

  8. Theres an alternate timeline where Craig does a Civale/BB game and we somehow win lol

  9. Rodney Dangerfield voice “hey, if I wanted to see a bunch of people shit the bed at 1pm on a Saturday, I’d go down to the old folks home!”

  10. What a great top of the first.

    In the last five game series against the Brewers, we lost the first, and then won the next three. Let’s do that again.

  11. Just win the next one. Flush this shitter down the toilet twice as it left streaks
