Agree on the mistake by Maddon part. But more because he put in Chapman in 8th despite knowing full well that Chapman hates that situation.
Classic Cubs collapse right there.
Terrible managing by Maddon, as well. The double switch cost him speed in centerfield. Heyward probably runs that ball down.

^^ crazy game, huh. I was gonna say lets do the double or nothing tonight and me pick Giants but i thought with BumGodner that might not be fair. Who knew?
leadoff walks by 9th inning relievers just slay me.
Sergio Romo trying to choke like Tony Romo.
Indeed. He panicked.
But to be fair, Wood and Rondon didn't do him any favors.
Good there by Almora. Gotta get the lead here, considering our bullpen situation.
uughh this is taking me back to watching Soriano flail at sliders down and away in 07 and 08 playoffs
I don't think Carl is even allowed to go multi innings. He's got bit of an injury history and Joe's yet to use him on b2b days, irrc.
Rizzo has been pressing hard, but we really need a quality AB from him now.
da fuq are they waiting for?
Maddon is such a dumbass. Yeah, let's pinch hit a 60 year old man in a leverage situation where a double play ends the inning. Mah righty/lefty matchup. Should've went with LaStella or stuck with Contreras.
"Best manager in baseball."
That's gonna be game. Maddon lost this one. Just some stupid decisions.
Great game. This series is going 5.
If they don't tee-off on Matt Moore tomorrow, this is over in favor of the Giants. I think Bochy rolls out Bumgarner for game 5 (don't know if he'll trust Cueto in that situation), and the Cubs ain't beating him twice in the same series.
This loss is on Joe and the bats failing early in run producing situations. But it's back to business 2morrow night, just need Rizzo and Russell to wake up on O.
Cubs are scary good in Wrigley. Shouldn't underestimate that, tbh.
