  1. Baseball is fun when you score 10+ runs every game 😎 keep it rolling boys! Go Cubs Go!

  5. I know all the attention is on Nico, but I’m so glad Mo Baller is getting some much needed confidence. Dude rakes.

  10. I know fuck the cardinals and brewers, but I always love Chicago kicking a New York team’s ass

  21. Okay so in the past three games we’ve had 10 runs scored, then 11, now 12. Obviously this trend will continue the rest of the season

  22. What a difference a week makes with the offense – 33 runs scored in their last 3 games

  29. Bats are finally awake. Above .500. First win streak. Run differential at +27.

    Let’s keep this Mets losing streak going all weekend.

  34. Gotta say I believe Ryno (my fav growing up) would be extremely proud of how Nico’s playing. Dude plays HARD and it’s paying off!

  36. So many good things from this game:

    Busch goes 2-4 with 2 R and a walk. Hopefully he can get it going.

    Both teams got 14 hits but Cubs score 12.

    4 DPs turned to kill potential rallies. (Can we count the strike ’em out, throw ’em out in top of the 4th as 5?)

    6-12 with RISP

    Only 6 LOB

    9/10 players got a hit.

  38. They were 19-4 (including 3-0 in the playoffs) in games I went to last year.

    This year they are 2-0 and both games were in the 70’s. March 30th and today. Starting off the season well so far.

    Finally over .500 and won 3 in a row. Don’t stop now boys!

  40. So, 7-7-10-11-12… if my math is right, we should score 150 runs the last game of the season.
