2023 MLB Baseball

[HOZER]

Everything that could have gone wrong yesterday did, cubs lost, Marlins won. It’s going to take quite a bit of luck to get the tides to turn. Guess my sports focus will be solely on football soon. GoCubsGo.

This almost looks fixed. Happ dropped an easy fly ball, cost us a run just now. Suzki dropped an easy fly ball the other night that cost us 2 runs and the game. Swanson had a throwing error last night that should have been a double play - that cost us 2 runs and basically the game. This crap looks phony. We have been strong defensively all year, now this. Braves up 4-1, this is over already. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

They hit a fly ball, we can't catch it, another gaff by Suzuki. It would have been a tough catch but still should have been made. We hit one deep; they make every catch. Yeah, we will be sitting at home watching the playoffs and deserve to be playing like this. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Another error, 5-1 Braves. Time to follow the football game.

Kind of feel like they’ve thrown in the towel.

Seems like it doesn't it. The vibe does not feel good.

Marlins just took a 2-1 lead, they are in a rain delay now  in the 9th.

Yep we had a chance, last thing we needed was a double play. That is just how it has been going.

[2006Coltsbestever]

This is it, I would give anything if somehow, we got 2 on and blasted one out of the park. Baseball Gods have been against us for 3 weeks now, we are due to have something go right.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Ball game. Probably season over. Unfortunate but when you play sloppy baseball against great teams, you can't win.

Shoot Cubs been struggling against mediocre to bad teams lately, makes sense they would get swept against a team like the Braves. Sucks.

That Arizona series killed us. That was complete nonsense and really ruined the season. Getting swept by them 4 in a row and losing 3 of them by 1 run was just pure bad luck. They really didn't do anything great to beat us, we just beat ourselves that series. That was a 4 game swing between us and them right there. We just go 2-2 in that series and they don't gain a game. 

[HOZER]

If the Marlins somehow lose after the delay I guess it’ll prolong the suffering as we’ll remain tied. We would have to win against the brewers  and the Marlins lose. If we remain tied Marlins get in since they own the tiebreaker. I think the Brewers will do anything they can to screw the Cubs, even if resting for the playoffs.

I mean everything that could go wrong lately has. Mets were up 1-0, Marlins score 2 runs then it starts to pour down rain. It couldn't of starting raining 5 minutes earlier. I mean, you can't make this stuff up. It would still be 1-0 Mets had the rain came in 5 minutes earlier. I just don't think it is meant to be for us.

In The 9th too, ugh!!!  So what happens if they can’t finish game? They go to Pittsburg tomorrow so obviously can’t make it up tomorrow….surely they’re not still waiting to finish? It still says delayed?

I am not sure what will happen, that is a great question. Maybe they finish it tomorrow and play a double header at Pitt on Saturday.

Man, right when you things couldn't get worse. The ending to this season has been strange.

[HOZER]

If only the Cubs could have one the last couple of games…..if only.

Should have. Cubs also gave away 2 games at Arizona and 2 at Cincy. You figure law of averages would even out, in our case it hasn't. 

[HOZER]

 

wow

[2006Coltsbestever]

Just now, HOZER said:

 

wow

Our fate is in the hands of the Mets because if the Marlins win this, we are basically screwed. 

[HOZER]

 

wait what? How does it count as a Mets win? They’re behind? This is second person I saw post this? Does it revert to score in last full inning played???

I mean, there’s still a chance if the Marlins lose multiple games to the pirates and we win 2-3 against against our arch nemesis the screwers, right?

I have no idea, the only thing I can thing of is, it is because the Mets had the lead entering the 9th and didn't get a chance to bat in the botton of the 9th? This is bizarre. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

If true, I would be furious if I was a Marlins fan. They took the lead.

[HOZER]

lol

 

 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Just call it a Mets win, we need a break, everything has gone against us lately

Hard telling how they are going to get this game in?

[2006Coltsbestever]

Marlins are actually still lucky because had that rain started 5 minutes earlier and the game was called, it would have been a Mets win.

Haven't paid to much attention this year, as my Yankees sucked, but have been following your playoff run here.

 

Be classic if that game got cancelled and Mets were given the W, because they led after the last "completed" inning.

Looks like they’ll finish on Monday, if “necessary.” How cool would it be if the Cubs won their necessary games and the Mets did us a solid? lol

It was great up until about 3 weeks ago, then this happened - At least the Cubs can say they were in it until the final weekend, still disappointing though unless a miracle happens now.

I was shocked by this

[HOZER]

Welp, Marlins rally to win today, Pirates led for a while but couldn’t hold on. Brewers playing like something’s on the line against the Cubs, and the Cubs of course playing terribly as they have been. Good stuff.

[HOZER]

Tied at the bottom of the 9th after a few of the Cubs finally wake up. Too little too late?

 

oh wait, Ross is putting in Cuas……..
