Cubs!

[Lumber_Jack]

Historic lead off home run, apparently the first one ever in a World Series game 7.

For sure. Off a guy that has been lights out in his last 2 starts. Now it'd be something if that's the only run

[Lumber_Jack]

Well so much for a one run game

You had hardly posted before it happened. Cubs did well to get out of that one with just the one run, after error and two on with one out.

Yeah the cubbies were in a jam there for sure. I'd rather see a game of combo runs,pitching, and good defense anyway

You must be on time delay, everytime you post something big has already happened.

No I just didn't get the notification until late. 3-1 Cubs lookin like the run producers they were in the regular season. Lots of baseball left. 

[Oh Shoot]

Rout in the making?

[Lumber_Jack]

Middle relief will tell the story. Miller has been unhittable in most outings. Looks like the Cubs are going with Lester whose a starter. The next 3 innings will be interesting

Edit: typed Lackey meant Lester

Gonna watch from a soak in the tub, away from puter and no smartphone.

Old man river just went yard. Cubs lookin like they want to finish this game.

Said he was the oldest player to hit a home run in the World Series.

Anyone else going to listen to the scanner? Chicago and Cleveland are the top two right now.

OMG, can't believe it, I should have stayed in tub longer, everything was fine while there!

Chapman just looks tired. Looked tired when he went in, didn't get any better.

I told my wife they should have never pulled Lester. Maddon has asked to much out of Chapman over the last couple games. Now Maddon has to figure out the 9th and possibly more. 

[Lumber_Jack]

Chapman is smoked. Lester should have finished the inning he still looked good. Russell should have had that ball at short.

Lordie, putting him back out there for bottom of the 9th!

I can't believe it. I'm seeing it, but just can't believe it.

[Lumber_Jack]

I guess Maddon doesn't trust his bullpen anymore than a gassed Chapman?

[Oh Shoot]

Well, new game. Sort of. With rain now.

I guess if the Cubs manage to lose after fighting back to tie the series, and lose a nice lead in the last game, it'll actually be a bigger story than if they win, and perpetuate the aura that much more.

I may have to find out how this one ended in the morning. They just rolled out the tarp and the radar doesn't look good.
