They had some good opportunities

Two very nice plays in the outfield by the Cubs that inning. It is nice to see Kosuke isn’t taking his hitting slump into the field with him.

What an inning !

A balk that didnt get called and two spectacular catches!!

This game could be the turning point!!

If we win that could be the most exciting inning of the year.

Suggestion: let's make this a non-save situation

by scoring 3 or more in the top of the 9th.

We could use some actual offense.

To the extent the Cubs are doing anything at all, they’re doing it with unearned runs and unforced errors. That has to change immediately!
