Someone was flying the L in the stands!! My people 

 

[snipezo]

Did they really say Lindor is one of the top 5 guys in the league to build a franchise around?

Trout
Machado
Harper
Betts
Bryant

Probably missing others too. Nothing against Lindor though

im shocked you have bryce on your list

 

[JZsportswhiz]

Wrigley Field will be flying the L too. That's a real thing

 

[Mexi]

The curse is a real thing also

Haha understandable

But yeah, the Cubs started flying it way back in the day to notify people in the neighborhood the outcome of the game. Unfortunately, the L flag has flown a lot more times than the W flag

Screw 1500, I wouldn't ever pay 100 to go to a bar and watch a game. I own a television.

The Dodgers probably disagree

The 1500 was to go to the game, for $1500 I could buy a really nice ass TV.  I would never pay $100 to watch a game on a TV lol.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I'd shell out for duke games but that's about it

 

[Mexi]

The Dodgers probably disagree

They got there
But the curse isnt lifted til they win it all

 

[catman]

The Indians could not lose Kluber's start, especially at home.  

 

[Mexi]

The curse is real his name is carlos santana in left field

Also helps when the vast majority of Cubs's game were broadcasted nationwide for over 60 years. Large groups of fans everywhere. Every Chicago team is a huge draw. Great sports city, and large population do that. Boston is the same way.
 
I've met a lot of Braves fans in random spots for the same reason, even in Panama. TBS had them nationwide for awhile. Not sure how long tho

Don't tell me you forgot that the White Sox are a team in Chicago too?

 

[Mexi]

The white sox dont exist

Saw two conflicting articles today on the Cubs... One said to continue to be patient and try to get Bauer into high pitch counts because he's had troubles with location. The other said to attack Bauer because the Cubs hit at a high clip when they swing at 1st pitch fastballs and Bauer leads off counts with the fastball 70% of the time. It'll be interesting to see what they do tonight.

 

[elcheato]

I'd expect Bauer to throw more curveballs, and try to repeat Klubers 2-seam success, as his has a lot of movement too

 

[Mexi]

Jake is gonna give up some runs

 

[elcheato]

I can confirm it is cold as fuck downtown
