POLL Cubs/Rox - NL Wild Card

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Man is it just me or is Lester getting a lot of balls called strikes? Forcing the Rockies to swing at clear balls

Clear balls?

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Um, Rizzo-Baez-Almora time?

 

[redseat]

Clear balls?

Yeah they've swung at a lot of pitches that were outside the zone... That's what happens when you get the calls going against you....

Granted they are close enough not to take but still

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

They were bowties

 

[redseat]

Is there a pitch Baez doesn't like?

Since the wild card format was adopted in 2012.....

The visiting team has had a surprising amount of success in the wild card game, having won 7 of the 12 games played by an average of 4 runs.

I didn't know the average was that high. I did think that the visiting team had won a lot, though.

Good info.

 

[MileHigh64]

Gotta keep the hope. Still reeling from that Chiefs comeback last night. I need something to slow down my early week drinking.

 

[JohnU]

Man don't you hate these bore-ass 1-0 pitchers duels in the post-season one-and-done?

 

[MileHigh64]

Kyle Freeland looking pretty good for a 2nd year player who hasn't slept for a week.

A little offense would sure be nice.

 

[JohnU]

A little offense would sure be nice.

16 in the first inning would have been kind of different.

I gotta be rootin' for Freeland, a U of E guy ... my almy mater.
