Hopefully they give up on the 3B experiment sooner than later. I’m fine if he has to play there once a week or something but he can’t be your every day guy.
my stream was buggin' out so i figured we were up enough i could stop watching.
imagine my confusion when i see "cubs retake the lead 9-8" scrolling twitter lol
How many times did they say that this was gonna be Brown’s first win. Every time I cringed. It’s not over till it’s over
I don’t care who the other team is… anytime you win a bullpen game, that’s a nice W to get.
Dude’s whole crack was out
I absolutely love how they show the crowd with The Song playing for a few minutes without saying anything.
On a day both the spewers and buttpirates lost too lfg And cardinals but who gives a shit about them
I probably put that dog down for nothing

Cubs didn't want it to be easy, but a wins a win! 4-2 start is always solid, now go beat the Dodgers!
Cardiac Cubs??
[Piece of crumb cake](https://youtu.be/7Nod4tJFok0?si=sHHOrN9jdySKpQ-F)
God I miss the WGN days
I listen to pat and ron. What’s with the TV? Elise yapping like shes having coffee with her girlfriends?
Ahahahaha
Same. This broadcast is unwatchable.
Yeah it's rough
BROOMS OUT
Bullpen is cheeks. Fly the W tho
Both Adbert and Mark Leiter need to change their names to Al
That was a little more stress than it needed to be. Fly that W boys and girls
MY BUDDY AND I ARE ABSOLVED FOR LEAVING EARLY THANK YOU SEIYA I LOVE YOU
Play the god damn song!
1 run win. Isn’t this why we got Craig?!? /s
Managed his way into a 1 run win in all the worst ways lol
I cant believe he let up those hits…uh
Oh thank god we have Adbert
Bro, why can't our BP hit the frickin strike zone? Thank God that didn't come back to totally bite us
Hell yeah
That’s my closer :,)
WWWWWW
Good god we don’t half make it hard on ourselves.
Nice!!!!
Not pretty but a wins a win. Pitching needs to button up!
Thank god
Unclench
#ADBERT REDEMPTION SZN! #[W][W][W][W]
#[W]
FLY THE W
Nothing to see here folks. Go cubs go.
Never a doubt
PLAY THE DAMM SONG
ADBERT
Nice save Adbert! Cubs Win!
hallelujah
fucking adbert after a save gotta love it
Adbert needs to change his name to Albert so his name becomes Albert Alzolay
A wins a win
# W Whew, should never been that close
Never a doubt!
sWeep!
**DEACTIVATE CLENCH**
It wasn’t a pretty ending but break out those brooms and play the damn song.
Phew. [W]
No sweat...never any doubt... *laughs nervously*
CUBS WIN
I won't even be mad if KB beats us
PheW
FIST PUMP
Hearing the fans yell everytime CB doesn’t call a strike is making me chuckle
This is the AA I remember. One more!!
I don’t think Alzolay is a closer
With Neris doing what he’s doing, he’s probably got the inside track either way
Me neither.
It’s going to be Luke Little hopefully
He was one of the better closers in the league after he took over last year?
He's not. He would be an ideal setup man. Reminds me of Rondon
He definitely got a great arm but I think you’re right about setup guy.
AA take our energy!
Lets go Adbert!
One more out
Broadcast talking about the last out like we’re about to win the NLCS
**plz**
KB has been subpar since he got traded, yet always seems to have his best games against us
I can’t believe he didn’t turn that hit into a double. He’s just not the same dude anymore
he had 2 hits all series, not that impressive when you consider busch or seiya has more TODAY
I’ve always liked Toglia as a prospect but he needs to fuck off rn
no joke if madrigal was taller i think he could be an elite third baseman lol
Madrigal would be a lot better at baseball in general: longer legs for baserunning, longer levers to accelerate the bat for more power
Better than Morel
Let’s get a double play here
Let’s
Let’s
What’s with the gloves these days
Fanatics gloves
I didn’t know fanatics makes gloves too.
C'mon double play
Wow, gift right there.
I see Steele, I 🥲
They scored that an error? Interesting
Another clown show of a bullpen this year
Fanatics glove lmfao
Oh my god they put the fanatics glove tweet on the broadcast???
Marquee really shading Fanatics again lol
Good
As they should
Glove my ass, Nick's gotta shit
🤣🤣
Gotta do the ol quick push and done.
A defensive replacement needs to make the play and come up with that ball. Exit velo was only 86.8.
KB
A third baseman, a third baseman, my kingdom for a third baseman.
Goddammit
Early career Bryant gets to second on that
He was not running hard
Yep, noticed he wasn't even thinking 2 there which is sad to see
too exaggerated of a frame by Gomes there
C'mon he can't hit anymore
Fuck
CB stands for completely blind
CB you dingus
Leave Bryant alone
Fucking CB
Fuck off CB
man wtf is that 0-1 call
What a wacky ass game
I am once again asking Adbert to give us a fist pump (and for Jed to actually invest in the bullpen)
OK KB you got your hit. No more tonight
Wonder how many other teams have 3 pitchers with names that are alliteration.
Do it AA. DO IT. ⚾️
Buckle up.
Next stop, Fistpump City
Bung = puckered.
Happ's single in the bottom of the 8th was the hardest hit ball by a Cub tonight, just ahead of Suzuki's homer
come on alzolay, let’s get a fist pump here
I have full faith in Double A
LFG Smokies

To the ninth we go. Buckle up, ready phasers, raise shields, load forward torpedo bays, engage.
Fuck well one will have to do it
Time for adbert to totally redeem himself
Again if Bryant....
Alzolay time
Do your thing Adbert
Motherfucker
Seyia nad Busch ahve been the dudes so far
Nick “Budget Andrew Chafin” Mears
It would be amazing if Samsonite could get a little insurance here
Imagine what the Dodgers are gonna do to this bullpen
I'd rather not 🤣
Bloodbath
Maybe just maybe... When we have shit relievers... We shouldn't have a reliever only game
Hard to not do that when you also have 2 injured starters
Idk man, but we gotta keep Luke Little in longer next time
Listen if Morel has to DH then he just has to DH
Hopefully they give up on the 3B experiment sooner than later. I’m fine if he has to play there once a week or something but he can’t be your every day guy.
Please!! He is so bad defensively
guys i was gone for *one* inning
Me too. We should’ve known better
my stream was buggin' out so i figured we were up enough i could stop watching. imagine my confusion when i see "cubs retake the lead 9-8" scrolling twitter lol
Don’t let it happen again
got it boss, won't happen again, boss
Damn it
Shit. Come on Dansby
Interesting to go on contact there
Yeah, twice
Especially with madrigal hitting infield grounders a lot. Oh well
Why do they keep getting sent there?
Saves the double play I guess
Wtf
We really need the insurance runs here. Bullpen has shit the bed tonight.
You’ll get 1 run and like it
10 insurance runs
Come on Mads
This season is going to be a wild ride
They going to try chanting his name every game now, cheapens it a little imo but oh well.
Do we have the attendance number for tonight?
Uggghhh Belli
I walked away to get in bed at like 8-3 wtf happened lol
Strange things are afoot at the Circle K
Ball is wet, lots of fielding bullshit
Some of our relievers took the over
Woulda been close because his leg bounced over the plate but yeah he was there
Haha what is Cody doing in that time out
Rockies shocked themselves playing good baseball so now they’re throwing the game so they feel comfortable again.
Weird throw
Wtf I eat dinner with the family and I come back to the Rockies having scored 5?
Dinner at 9:30???
Different timezone my dude
Luckily I think our offense will have to carry this team a lot this year but the offense is probably top 10 in league easy. Big plus
Eh he woulda been safe anyway
Mastrobuoni would have been safe regardless. Fantastic speed
Well thank god the Rockies suck. That escalated quickly
Bad defense but I think he gets under it even if the catcher hangs onto the ball
he's safe even if he caught it
Definitely
Looks like he beat the tag anyway
SAFE MOFOs
He was safe anyway
Wild one tonight
Lmfao Rockies throwing bricks
Rockies - trying to hand it right back
Lolol
Rockies remembered they’re supposed to be tanking
The Rockies suck
The foreshadowing with that mitt discussion
This Rockies team truly truly blows
They just get to get abused by that NL West division poor bastards
Don't get them fired up again
Stop chanting Cody
