CRAZY win last night! Couldn't believe we actually came out on top in that one.

Let's go nuts and actually win a series in Pittsburgh.

even though this season has been disastrous, yesterdays game was amazing. turning point? probably not, but you have to find some enjoyment for the next 3 months.

Truth.

This team isn't going to get any better this year, but last night was still a blast to watch.

Another game against the ole' mighty Pirates, another loss by this "major league franchise" that we call the Chicago Cubs. What a pathetic mess the Cubs are. If there isn't a "clean house" between the AS break and the end of the season then this franchise deserve to be the worst team in baseball.

The Cubs will now officially enter the AS break without a three-game winning streak, making them the first such team since the 2000 Astros.

Losing to the Pirates isn't embarrassing now. Chipper to the DL. Aramis has to be the replacement...

The mighty Bucs defeated us handily today. Bring on the AS break.

Kind of surprised to see him turn it down, but you can't fault a guy for wanting to spend a few days with his family.

Bothy isn't an idiot after all. Would have been nice to see Aramis start and may e do some damage.

Thought Castro should've started and led off. That would've put the lineup together better than have weeks lead off with Tulo towards the bottom.

Derek Jeter not showing up due to mental and physical exhaustion. Stfu! John Kruk said it best if youre an all star and can't play atleast go and tip your hat.

I'm 3-1 at Wrigley this year and 8-2 in the last 2 seasons. Can I get season tickets please?
