We lost but I like we put up a run in the 9th and the story of the game once again is shown in the end... Chase hits a rocket right at Rizzo who doubles up Toles to end the game. Positives of the game our bats are looking good. We had a lot of solid hits. Blanton blew it leaving that slider hanging. Cubs made the right plays and we simply didn't. We wanted to take a split in Chi town its up to Kersh to continue to rebuild his playoff cred.
Alrighty game 2. Kershaw on the mound. We wanted the split of the first 2. Missed out on game 1. Lets see if the early post season success for Kersh will translate to a complete game domination tonight. Bats gotta stop leaving runs on the board. OK 1 inning down both teams go 1.2.3. Top 2
Agon goes yard to give us a lead. Pederson gets some good wood on the ball but flies out deep to L for out 2. Grandal up
Toles flies out. Bottom 2. Kersh gets out 1 on line drive to center. Seagar guns russell out at 1st for out 2
Chase thinks he has ball 4 but ump rings him up for the K. Seager up and gets the walk. 1 on and 2 outs with Turner up
Turner gets the walk too. Now we have 2 on and 2 outs with Agon up again. This is our first time with a RISP. We have left too many on base so far this post season. If Chase got the call we could have bases loaded but Agon got 2 on
Kershaw gets another easy inning bottom 4. Toles K's for out 1, Kershaw helps himself with a base hit. Top of the lineup trying to bring home some runs.
