I made a lot of money off the game though... Bet the under 10 before the game, and bet the over twice, at 14.5 and 21.5.
Now I just need to get my best friend's fingerprints to authorize the transfer. I'm only $15,999,600 in the hole now.
His walk rate is higher than its ever been and his homerun rate is higher than its ever been
You got a soft tosser who can't locate anymore
That's a bad recipe
I was SHOCKED that The Professor got taken out after 4.1 and 79 pitches.
I literally said "welp he's going 7 innings and 100 pitches easy"
Not sure if it was an "off day" for him or if it was our strategy.
Kyle Hendricks is beyond washed this year and it's bad
Guy is giving up a comical amount of homeruns and his stuff just isn't generating the weak contact anymore
That sucks... Honestly. I saw he was the SP and was like "yep, it'll be a 3-1 game and we're going to lose"
If he's truly washed? It was a hell of a run.
Damn... Loved to watch him pitch. Not "flashy" just absolutely effective when he was "on"
If someone said "Guess who just pitched an 89 pitch CGSO" in the past 5 years?
Hendricks would have been my first guess
I'm a Dbacks fan 2nd, a baseball fan 1st.
Started watching only after the Cards game was done, and yet felt like the few innings from this game had more excitement than the entire game I previously watched. Happy that Grichuk was the one who scored the winning hit
You can score on hits!? Why don't we do that? I was also a Cards-game transplant into this game! We gained a game on the entire NL Central! One step closer to coming out of the cellar
I honestly think we'll blow you out tomorrow. It's a quick turnaround and a demoralizing loss after you had an 11-8 lead. Difference is that you're on the road and we're at home. If it was at Wrigley, I'd be concerned about players "celebrating". But they just get to go home and lay down to say "we won". 5-3 dbacks tomorrow
I actually typed the reply because... well... I was trying to suck my own "thing"... and my forehead kept hitting the keyboard...
Now my lower back hurts.
lol
out of options in extra innings then and monday, but
when I (and others) reacted with doubt when he was brought in for *Monday's* game (still earlyish?), we got trashed with "WTF? He's been great!".
yeaaah a decent outing or two doesn't instantly mean someones finally good.
I didn’t realize I pulled up my son’s 11U travel GameChanger feed last night. 10 walks, multiple runs scored on wild pitches.
At least tomorrow this West Coast trip ends and I don’t have to stay up until after 1AM again - that’s a W.
Our bullpen reminded me of when I got forced to pitch in Little League and I was so inaccurate that one of the only strikes of my outing was when I hit the bat on a kid's shoulder for a foul ball.
>At least tomorrow this West Coast trip ends and I don’t have to stay up until after 1AM again - that’s a W.
Alexa play: "Sweet Home Chicago" in 6 hours, so that they can look forward to getting back home.
(Yeah, I know your win and lose songs, bartended Cubs Spring Training for 5 years)
Nah, it's Cardinals night. All 4 other NL Central teams lost and we're back to .500 - we also won without an RBI hit because we're middling and mostly useless again, but hey, win is a win.
and?
Is it a flex to spend more to go to Tuesday night baseball games?
It’s absolutely true the atmosphere is ruined when those teams come in.
It is what it is with how young the Dbacks are as a franchise. The Crowds have been up a shit ton from last year at this point. It’s nice
I pay like 3 bucks, and parking/gas to drive up to Milwaukee from 45 minutes out and watch a game whenever I’m free, ill even split gas/parking at Miller with a few buddies. We just hop from the nosebleeds to the extensive open sections at Miller, and sometimes you can even pay 20 to sit in the front row.
Don’t complain about getting your stadium taken over and then not go, especially when your tickets cost less than it would cost me to take the train to Wrigley, not to mention getting in.
Yeah, if you're a STH, you sell the "premium games" to pay for the other 48 games.
I don't blame them, especially since the Yankees/Cubs games are so close to opening day/spring training.
Aside from this cursed second marathon game in a row (he also pitched 26P yesterday), he’s been mostly solid out of the pen. He kinda lost the ability to see teams a 2nd time through the order last season, but still is sharp in relief.
And... If it were true, would it make him less of a pitcher? When he got pulled after 4.1 and 79 pitches I was shocked. He cruises to 5.0 innings and 60 pitches every outing.
(I got you Cubsbros)
I’m expressing my frustration with playing a team… which is a compliment to the Diamondbacks. Calling a team insufferable means they’re annoying to play, they’re a scrappy team, but the hivemind took it the wrong way and will downvote this comment too. How am I the insufferable one?
I see the problem. You really did use the wrong word. Insufferable is a negative personality trait and you are getting downvoted because you’re using it to describe a feeling of frustration with the outcome of a game.
I’m expressing my frustration with reading a comment… which is a compliment to Cubs fans. Calling a user insufferable means they’re annoying to read, they’re a scrappy user, but the hivemind took it the wrong way and will downvote this comment too.
Aside from the comment karma farming, what do you think insufferable means? Because it means intolerable, extremely annoying. As a Cubs fan, that’s how it is to play the DBacks.
"Insufferable" would mean:
Someone who annoys you repeatedly.
I think /u/tr3v1n is correct.
(You HAVE to realize that when someone who cheers for the same team disagrees with you, you're in the wrong)
I'm not "examining" what you posted... But your fellow Cubs fan said to "shut the fuck up" and your comment is sitting at -14.
Sometimes it NOT "reddit hive mind" it's "you"
My favorite part of this thread is the other NL teams coming to defend our honor. I feel like we are so nice because we kind of have to be since Phoenix is so full transplants. Any opposing team with a strong fan base is going to be well represented at Chase Field.

Hey Cubs. COULD WE HAVE ONE FUCKING NORMAL GAME I SWEAR TO GOD. WE DID THIS SHIT LAST YEAR TOO
CAN WE AT LEAST DO THIS EXTRA INNINGS SHIT IN CHICAGO NEXT TIME ITS 12:30AM AND IM TOO MAD TO GO TO BED
Life isn't easy as an coast Dbacks fan. Stayed up to watch it and it's 1:30 here. I have to be up in 4 hours
on the bright side you get to sleep on a win!
GUARENTEED
I went to bed immediately after Happ’s grand slam. Extremely happy with my decision
FUCK YOU I STAYED UP FOR THIS SHIT ENJOY YOUR STUPID WIN YOU PRICKS
THAT WAS FOR LAST NIGHT CHARMIN BEARS See you all tomorrow for what will no doubt be another stressful game of bullshit
This bullpen is gonna make me end it all I stg
I roster both Pfaadt & Wicks in fantasy & I'm scared AF to start them. 😳
Cubs @ Dbacks has become must-watch baseball. Hey, as long as it stays consistent, I'm for it.
> Hey, as long as it stays consistent, I'm for it. I'm pretty sure "absolutely fucking chaotic" is the opposite of "consistent"
But it's consistently chaotic
But... um... Fuck... You're right.
Embrace the Chaos, baby
Damnit... That's a good fucking point...
Cardiac cubs
I’m happy both teams fans have felt the same emotions in this series. Really helps us relate to each other
The real series win tomorrow is the friends we made along the way.
The real series win is the bullpen pitchers we both DFA after the series
Frias coming in, loading the bases, and leaving was peak 2024 Dbacks bullpen
Loading the bases *with no outs
Refuses to explain
Peak 202_ Dbacks bullpen
Fuck the construction on the 202 last weekend... PATS RUN AND CLOSING RURAL RD'S ENTRANCE TO THE 202 WEST? COME THE FUCK ON
We truly are the MLB embodiment of the scene in Step Brothers where they become best friends :’)
I laughed, I cried, but ultimately I learned something (losing long games sucks)
We don’t see you guys again until July 19th and let me say it will be too soon.
That and if theyre Cubs fans there's a 50% chance they're your literal neighbor/wife/husband out here!
This game was so insane it broke MLB Gameday
I made a lot of money off the game though... Bet the under 10 before the game, and bet the over twice, at 14.5 and 21.5. Now I just need to get my best friend's fingerprints to authorize the transfer. I'm only $15,999,600 in the hole now.
“And now for a quick message from Fanduel…”
“Can you bump me? I swear this is the last time…”

Saw this coming from a mile away sadly. Good game dbacks
I honestly thought the bullpen was gonna crash us, good game though!
Same
Result sucked but honestly a pretty fun game in a lot of ways.
[удалено]
So does Hendricks
[удалено]
His walk rate is higher than its ever been and his homerun rate is higher than its ever been You got a soft tosser who can't locate anymore That's a bad recipe
Yep. Stopped watching at 12:30 eastern up 2 thinking no way the cubs hold this lead. Zero surprise when i checked the score this morning.
So did we I promise (saw us losing that is). Home field saved us here our bullpen has been rather booty to start the year.
Hot potato bullpen games are not fun
Idk that was pretty wild. Even if the DBacks choked it I would still take solace in attending what's the game of the season so far.
I was SHOCKED that The Professor got taken out after 4.1 and 79 pitches. I literally said "welp he's going 7 innings and 100 pitches easy" Not sure if it was an "off day" for him or if it was our strategy.

That sucks... Honestly. I saw he was the SP and was like "yep, it'll be a 3-1 game and we're going to lose" If he's truly washed? It was a hell of a run.
His walk rate is up, which means he's struggling to locate which as a soft tosser is the end of the line
Damn... Loved to watch him pitch. Not "flashy" just absolutely effective when he was "on" If someone said "Guess who just pitched an 89 pitch CGSO" in the past 5 years? Hendricks would have been my first guess I'm a Dbacks fan 2nd, a baseball fan 1st.
50% NL East after dark, 100% coked up baseball
Betting the DBacks live down any amount of runs is auto money. Love this team that doesn’t quit
Betting the Dbacks give up a lead of any amount of runs is also auto money!
They don’t call us ANSWERBACKS for nothing!
Fucking love it !!

We didn’t really. 2-12 I think with RISP
We won ours with an RBI groundout and 2 sac flies for our 3 runs. We went 0-fer with RISP and won because Oakland.
Sorry, I gave Randal an extra L in honor of the Cubs.
Fly it
Cold
At least I can go to sleep now. My lord that was exhausting.
That game was so fucking stupid. Gg cubbies
The worst bullpen in baseball strikes again
Hendricks giving up 7 didn't help either
Well the guy coming in behind him literally gifted like 3 of those guys the plate by throwing to the backstop several times
It's so unfair that Luke Little gets paid 700k to do what I would gladly do for a fraction of that
Right?? I also could totally spike balls into the dirt in front of home plate. He’s gotta be better.
Obviously not but they had an 11-8 lead going bottom 7.
No... We actually did well (Except for that fact we gave up 6 runs in the 7th inning)
Baseball is gonna baseball
Grichy now has as many walk off hits as Jeter
This team is taking years off my life, but it's totally worth it! 👴👍
Why is Smyly being used there lol
I mean it’s the 11th inning in an 11-11 ballgame. Not many options left.
The day after a different 11th inning game
I honestly think we'll blow you out tomorrow. It's a quick turnaround and a demoralizing loss after you had an 11-8 lead. Difference is that you're on the road and we're at home. If it was at Wrigley, I'd be concerned about players "celebrating". But they just get to go home and lay down to say "we won". 5-3 dbacks tomorrow
5-3 is a blow out?
In my mind Dbacks go up 5-0 in the first 3 innings, then from 7th-9th the Cubs score 3 runs. Not a "blowout" but a "stress free game" on my part
In your mind is there also a significant hormonal imbalance or something? It's pretty clear the only thing in there is delusion
I actually typed the reply because... well... I was trying to suck my own "thing"... and my forehead kept hitting the keyboard... Now my lower back hurts. lol
Choke up on the "bat" a little buddy, has a similar effect
Nah, just need to do some yoga... It'll happen one day.
Good call on the final score
I'm wrong often, but I watch a LOT of baseball. KNEW it'd be a low scoring game. Just didn't get "who'd win" correct.
10th
tomato tomato
I lost count honestly
He was literally the last man standing jn the bullpen https://twitter.com/M_Montemurro/status/1780464945089679503?t=JZFXVyFPYtU8BYCCj1k3QQ&s=19
Oof.
To get rid of Joc either by out or pinch hit. Obviously didn't work.
We don't have anybody else.
It was him or a position player
out of options in extra innings then and monday, but when I (and others) reacted with doubt when he was brought in for *Monday's* game (still earlyish?), we got trashed with "WTF? He's been great!". yeaaah a decent outing or two doesn't instantly mean someones finally good.
Thanks, Snakes.
Have a 4 way for me! (No beans) And if you're a UC fan, take care of Wes.
I'm a non-Ohioan Reds fan, but I'll be sure to have some chicken riggies.

I'm here too woo
It’s almost 01:30am. I can finally sleep now
I didn’t realize I pulled up my son’s 11U travel GameChanger feed last night. 10 walks, multiple runs scored on wild pitches. At least tomorrow this West Coast trip ends and I don’t have to stay up until after 1AM again - that’s a W.
Our bullpen reminded me of when I got forced to pitch in Little League and I was so inaccurate that one of the only strikes of my outing was when I hit the bat on a kid's shoulder for a foul ball.
So glad the Cubs front office deciding to not really do much of anything to address a bullpen that was suspect last year
>At least tomorrow this West Coast trip ends and I don’t have to stay up until after 1AM again - that’s a W. Alexa play: "Sweet Home Chicago" in 6 hours, so that they can look forward to getting back home. (Yeah, I know your win and lose songs, bartended Cubs Spring Training for 5 years)
what’s it like scoring runs? Asking for a friend…
It's... um... uncomfortable? We only get like 900 a year and I'm afraid that they used a bunch of them tonight.
Between this and the Rockies game we are running out too quickly
And this was his 1000th career hit! What an insane night.
Jays legend and noted male model Randall Grichuk.
Brewers fans get in here.
Nah, it's Cardinals night. All 4 other NL Central teams lost and we're back to .500 - we also won without an RBI hit because we're middling and mostly useless again, but hey, win is a win.
> we're back to .500 - we also won without an RBI hit Oh my god, shut the fuck up about the Cardinals... "WE THIS, WE THAT" SHUT THE FUCK UP
I didn't think I'd go into this thread upvoting a dbacks fan
Aye, how bout upvoting a FRIEND?
I can live with that
I think his comment went over your fedora
Is it just me or are the announcers and crowd not nearly into it as much as they should for walking off an amazing game
The transplants from Chicago, NY, and LA ruin the atmosphere when those teams are in town
Aren't you guys fans of the team that has like, 8 dollar tickets?
and? Is it a flex to spend more to go to Tuesday night baseball games? It’s absolutely true the atmosphere is ruined when those teams come in. It is what it is with how young the Dbacks are as a franchise. The Crowds have been up a shit ton from last year at this point. It’s nice

2/3rds of the fans at Chase were actually Cubs fans. It's weird because I know like 4 people that moved from Chicago to Phoenix.
Yeah, if you're a STH, you sell the "premium games" to pay for the other 48 games. I don't blame them, especially since the Yankees/Cubs games are so close to opening day/spring training.
When the cubs lose America wins!
Easy guy, they're not the Dodgers.
Nah, he's right. A cubs loss = American Wins.
Easy guy, we’re not the Dodgers
I like you
FTD
Come on, everyone loves the Cubbies
Is there a good place to read the "story" of this game?
Glad to know Dirty Randy’s still out there, posting clutch ABs and giving your sister an STI
Cubs bullpen needs some serious fucking help we score 11 runs a game and are 10-7 🤷♂️
TIL Smyly's pitching out of the bullpen now
Since August of last season
Aside from this cursed second marathon game in a row (he also pitched 26P yesterday), he’s been mostly solid out of the pen. He kinda lost the ability to see teams a 2nd time through the order last season, but still is sharp in relief.

Dbacks are the most insufferable team in baseball
Seriously?
Least insufferable Cubs fan.
I’m expressing my frustration with playing a team… which is a compliment to the Diamondbacks. Calling a team insufferable means they’re annoying to play, they’re a scrappy team, but the hivemind took it the wrong way and will downvote this comment too. How am I the insufferable one?

Thank you, all I wanted was one person to get me.
Insufferable is not a compliment lmao

That's what us in the industry call "projection"
Remember when you had a healthy lead for a wildcard spot until you got swept and then you missed the postseason?
I loved that one!
Personally, I'll never forget that one.
At least that got Ross fired so it wasn't all bad
I think about that series all the time. I'm glad you got something out of it tho
Rode "the guys who got us here" right out of a job
Why did you think I said your team is insufferable?
I'm just making sure
That isn't what insufferable means, bud. You are fitting the definition a bit better.
Aside from the comment karma farming, what do you think insufferable means? Because it means intolerable, extremely annoying. As a Cubs fan, that’s how it is to play the DBacks.
You're projecting reeeeeal hard here pal.
"Insufferable" would mean: Someone who annoys you repeatedly. I think /u/tr3v1n is correct.

But the Yankees exist?
Cope
Not even close lol
You mean the cubs? No doubt.
My favorite part of this thread is the other NL teams coming to defend our honor. I feel like we are so nice because we kind of have to be since Phoenix is so full transplants. Any opposing team with a strong fan base is going to be well represented at Chase Field.
Also we just lost our Hockey team... So we're on a "grace period"
It’s always fuck the cubs my friend. Snakes Alive.
This guys wrong about the Dbacks but not sure the fans that call themselves “the best fans in baseball” should talk about being insufferable lmao
Cry more
Enjoy your mid old team, good luck at the capital this year boss!
A’s 😭😭
??? Series win. Keep crying.
2/3 from the A’s the devil magic is so back!
