We've been so **** at throwing strikes this series.

Feels like good scouting, Cubs just aren't swinging at garbage.

8 walks and only 1 run.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Was hoping for 3/5 but I'll take 2/5. Hopefully they can win the next series.

Not the most fun win but much needed for our mental health. A lot of us were okay with 2/5 going into this and the only game it felt like we played truly poorly as a team was game 3.

There was definitely a lot of puckering going on with all the walks we issued.

Ultimately did what they needed to do but still stings as one more would've felt like a dagger through their hearts and they were so close multiple times.

Agreed 3-2 and 9 game lead would have looked insurmountable. But we need to get 1 or 2 seed so think we keep the hammer down.

Yea, if we don’t, I have no hope for that 3 game series. To much can happen in that that the favorite can just have a bad weekend, etc. Need to get that 5 game series to have a shot IMO
