Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
Valbuena flies out to Stubbs on a 3-1 pitch. Nice running catch by Stubbs. I thought it might fall in off the bat. Two outs.

Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
Where did that 1-2 pitch to DeJesus miss?

DeJesus pops out to Cairo to end the inning. 107 pitches for Cueto.
4-2 Reds after 7 1/2.

Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
I would prefer to see Chapman pitch the ninth.
Cueto can probably finish, but I wouldn't push his pitch count this time of year. Want Cueto strong in September and October. |

Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
If we add another run or two here (as it looks like we might after Bruce's triple), I try and save Chapman for the nightcap.

Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
I'd use Broxton or Marshall in the 9th. Hell, even Simon.

Bruce triples to deep left to begin the bottom of the 8th. Big insurance run on third base.

Love seeing Jay going to left. Hits or not, when he goes the other way, good things will happen.

Very little being said about the ball game. Most of the talk about other subjects. Some of it's interesting. Whoops, Chapman is up. |

Re: 8/18 Game 1 Cubs at Reds
Ludwick's up. Good decision by Dusty IMO. Hope he uses someone other than Chapman in the 9th, would rather see Chapman saved for tonight if necessary. I feel pretty good with a 3 run lead no matter who's pitching.
