Title: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:01:02 pm They won the last time I did this, so I am going to try again.
Must win game for the Cubs, as they need this or they go down 3-0. On this day 11 years ago, the Red Sox completed the first comeback from 3-0 down in baseball history. That series is a little similar to this one in that the Sox lost the first two games with their two aces. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:13:09 pm The crowd is going crazy as the seem to sense that it is now or never for the Cubs.
Hendricks strikes out Murphy, which is huge. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:15:33 pm Hendricks looks really shaky early, but Arrieta didn't last long last night either, so I wonder how much of a bullpen Maddon has now.
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:17:47 pm Schwarber nearly misplayed that one, but he caught it to end the inning.
The Cubs need to manufacture some runs tonight with steals and bunting. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:31:58 pm Schwarber ties it up with a homerun.
The ump has a wide strike zone tonight, that is for sure. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:32:33 pm Soler grounds out to end the first inning with the score tied at 1.
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 08:43:00 pm The ump is biased against the Cubs.
Hendricks had two pitches called balls that the Mets pitcher had called strikes. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:01:39 pm Daniel Murphy goes deep again.
Let's just walk this guy from here on in, ok? Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:02:54 pm Cespedes nearly follows suit, but the ballpark holds this shot and it is 2-1 Mets here.
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:26:02 pm Soler launches a homer to tie this game at 2.
However, the longer the game stays close, the more advantage the Mets have. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:28:09 pm Gotta question pulling Hendricks right now
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:55:38 pm That is Cubs baseball for you. Strike out a batter with a runner at third and you get a passed ball and the Mets score a critical run.
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 09:58:14 pm Now Soler makes a dumb decision and the wheels are coming unglued here at Wrigley.
Lucky break that it went into the ivy on that play. Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 10:04:45 pm Cubs have 12 more outs to work with here.
Title: Re: Live blog for game 3 Post by: dolphins4life on October 20, 2015, 10:06:22 pm Cubs go out in order in the bottom of the sixth.
This is painful to watch. |
