Sam Holbrook had always been a tight ump. A few years back his games averaged more runs than any others. Not for sure these days on the numbers.

Whoa ... he sure opened up the strike zone on that one.

Judging by the roar of the crowd, it sounds like Cub fans got into the stadium.

Cleveland hitters need to keep their bats on their shoulders and see if Chapman can throw strikes. In his Reds days, he usually got wild and lost velocity when being used in too many games in a row like tonight.

:scared:

What an at bat:popcorn:

We want Henry! We want Henry!

 

Yes! Do you believe in reverse jinxs!!!!?

Can't throw 16 fastballs on 16 pitches and expect MLB hitters to not hit them.

Unbelievable

The Cubs manager will never live this one down if they lose

I called Davis's HR on Facebook.

Mid June was th last homer he gave up this year. So it must work pretty good for him. I'd say he has been overused this series.

He shouldn't. He over managed the last 3 games.

And what a horrible at bat by Gomes. At 2-0, I am not swinging. I don't care if it is right down the middle. I take a strike first. From 2-0, Chapman threw three balls and Gomes swung at all three.
