BEST RECORD IN THE LEAGUE!!!!!!!!! OPENING DAY w!

WHAT a first inning! Happ homers on his first pitch of his first opening Day!!!!!!!!!!!the theme of Everybody In was on point today...EVERYBODY contributed to the 8 runs! WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!! Bullpen was terrific, TLS off the bench double to get the rally going, JHey w/a 2B, Riz and Schwarb's with homer's~the Leftie's raking today!Scary moment when Javy was hit on the hands..you heard him yell through the t.v. in what was prob a mix of pain, and anger over not getting his ab with guys on base. Off to fly my new W flag for the first time!

   If Ian Happ leads off today's game with a home run, I will jump in Lake Michigan later today.

Thought San Diego was going to get the win in extra's but the Brewer's win in the 12th 2-1.

yes...and when you saw him hit his chest/patch twice and raise up, you knew. The only patch missing from Rizzo's Jersey is a "C".

 

[FINFAN]

Happy Good Friday Everyone! Here's hoping it's a good one for a W tonight! It's the Professor's 100th start!

LOL! That reminds me of Big Z taking a bat to the Gatorade dispenser back in 2012.

There goes the Cub's perfect season, but WHAT A GAME BY EDDIE BUTLER!!!!!!!!!! Stinks he gets the L~ 17 inning's and we drop game 2 to the Marlin's. Should have gotten the W for him, brutal to see Morrow throw 2 pitches and Bam! Starlin and Brinson Cub Killer's tonight. Poor Kyle! he just NEVER gets any run support when he pitches. Tonight was like last year how if we the team scores a lot of runs one game, the next game the bats go cold. Again, JHey and Javy getting the brunt of the bad tweets etc. when no one but KB and Zobie were doing anything offensively. Well. game 2 in the books, turn the page, Boy's! season just started! I swear the Brewers feed off of Cub results tho...they were down by 3 in the 9th, we lose...they put up 5 to win, on a Braun homer no less. Salt meet wound. On the up side, the Marlin's had to go to their starter for tomorrow to close tonight, and we need YU to go 8, lol.

you're right, lol. What isn't too cool to see is Happ throwing his helmet tonight in frustration. I mean, I get how hitting a homer on the first pitch you see followed by 6 or 7 strike outs can be annoying but

all these extra inning games, short fuses...could be a doozey of a season

I don’t think 17 innings was a coincidence last night

So true Anthony, so true.

So true Anthony, so true.

Very true and while I hate when the Cubs lose, it seems fitting that the team from Florida won.

and since the game went into today, we still can fly the W with a win tonight

 

[FINFAN]

Darvish Cubs DebYU today!
C'mon bat's! Defense gotta do their thing so Yu can keep his pitch count under 90 and still get through 7+.
Starlin and Brinson...not today!
Would LOVE to get this series at Marlin's Park, not sure why it's so hard to accomplish, just always struggle there. 4 game series stink, tho.

(Note no Javy...Zobie earned the spot last night, for sure)

Eddie Butler last night~ ALL of 'em rolled into one relief pitcher

 

[FINFAN]

WHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FINFAN]

Nothing like 36 innings of Cubs baseball in the first 3 days, lol. Hoping tomorrow is a normal 9!No April Fool's extra inning's

and

...it doesn't happen often, make it count , lol

 

[FINFAN]

today's lineup...no foolin'!

Willy getting a rest after playing 36 innings, most behind the dish.
