I am so nervous. So close. Keep Lester in until he runs into trouble. I don't believe Maddon will keep him in though. Yet he also seems to be in a rhythm too. Let his get someone on base first. I don't like this managing.

The last time one of my 2 favorite teams won was in 97 when I received my degree from UA. This year I've decided to go back to school ( Medical Coding) when my other other favorite team can win a champioship. Hope it is a good omen.

I came here cause I couldn't think of anywhere else there are rabid sports fans and wanted to talk about this insane game. Then I realized it's all Cubs fans in here. Sorry guys, I'll let you be in peace

Maddon fucked up royally. There was no reason to pull Hendricks. Maddon just got cute or nervous.
Let's see if his team can pick him up.

And now Maddon has nowhere to go beyond Chapman. Screwed himself by getting too cute again.

It seems so easy to second guess Maddon. If you're going to bring in Chapman with that lead in game 6, then why rush into the bullpen when your starter is killing it?

And it's not like it was reasonable at the time. Even the awful Joe Buck questioned it. Hendricks was at 53 pitches I think? Two outs and a guy on first, no big deal with a ground ball pitcher.

Was just going to type the same thing, been cooking and texting my chicsgo friends; maddon was too cute with this pitching moves this evening. Even after the Hendricks debacle, let Lester get you into the 9th.
Let's go Cubs.

Told my wife that as soon as he came in. "This is the move that lost the Cubs the series," I told her.
Didn't need to happen if you don't bench the hot hand, though.

I worked late yesterday and didn't catch the game, but that is why I love base ball, so many little things culminate and contribute to whatever outcome is to be had.
