Huge series in Cleveland this weekend. Hoping we don’t get swept It's been a fun division to follow this year. Big swings it seems like month to month...or week to week. You as a fan probably aren't liking things right now. I've got enough worries of my own. 10 game home stand starts today for Cubs. Have to go 8-2 minimally. Having a tough time figuring which is best way to make up ground and solidify wild card. Brewers play in St. Louis. Normally I say go Brewers but Cardinals also go to Nationals for a tough series and could get a couple losses there while Brewers host Padres. All sorts of different options could happen.

Fair or unfair? The kid could eat at DQ and end up on the DL with an ice cream headache... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 15, 2019 Report Share Posted September 15, 2019 Reds found another way to lose tonight losing 1-0 to Arizona. Their pitchers in 8 innings gave up 1 hit and 0 walks and only had 89 pitches but gave up 1 run. Gave up a triple and a Sac fly for the only run tonight.

The Diamondbacks are the first team since at least 1900 to win a MLB game with just one baserunner in a game that lasted at least nine innings, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Theo is still drafting so a few more like Nico sitting down on the farm makes this off season a little more interesting given how quickly Nico has performed. Nice win for the guys to cut the lead to 3. Now we need Brewers to keep doing their thing and we'll do ours today to get the lead down again. Shaping up for exciting 2 weeks here....at least I hope it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first priority for next year would be to trade (overpay if needed) for Whit Merrifield. Two birds one stone. Plays second base and leads off. Done and done. After him I don't know enough yet. I'm still stuck in this playoff chase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I didn't pay enough attention to this stat at first glance. Simply put that is unreal. I'm trying to think of a comparable NFL stat. First team to win a game with only 1 first down?
