Pretty much the last thing I expected to happen, but I'll take it! :toot:

This is one of those situations where the official scorer should invoke their right to move it

I think Lopez had about as rough an inning as you can have as a catcher there. Hit by two foul tips, two wild pitches (one scored a run and the other let a guy on base after a third strike), a mental lapse that lets another guy on after a dropped third strike

There's quite a bit of irony in that if Montero hadn't been lifted and was still behind the plate, the Cubs almost certainly would have lost the game.

I would've blamed Lopez, not Osuna for that blown save there.

Congrats on winning the pessimism off, Blue Jays fans. :v:

Really though, I hope we didn't annoy you too much with our constant negative Cubs posting only to sweep, we were just coming off a series split with the goddamn Reds and having our staff ace go to the DL, so we were feeling a bit down. You all are alright. Would absolutely poo poo post with you again. :shobon:

Gameday threads are always a lot more fun when teams with active SAS fanbases meet.

I only caught the 9th/10th innings on the drive home but wow that was insane. I'll be rewatching the condensed version tonight on MLB.tv.

Weird acoustics with such a small park. Also, Dex really looked safe to me.

E: Quick Googling suggests Piscotty's jersey is for his mom. Also DeJong wanted to go with Paulie D but Jersey Shore and/or one of the people from it had that copyrighted. Having never seen anything of Jersey Shore other than the new series of Beavis and Butthead where they MST3K it, I'll take Twitter's word for it.

Blown replay call there somehow.

It was a nice surprise to see that the Cardinals called a struggling Piscotty as their 26th man, put him in the lineup, and bat him 2nd!

Especially when it moves Tommy "Destroyer of Worlds and Buyer of Frozen Treats" Pham to the bench.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!

Do the Nationals really not have a better pinch running option than Edwin Jackson?

Runners at second and third, no outs. Seems like a good time to strike out twice, then ground out anemically.
