Go Cubs from the Philippines Chicago born retiree age 79 still love the cubs
Let’s goooo cubbiessss!!!!! 🔵🐻
Now win 24 of 28 and we MIGHT be in business! Go Cubs!
I watched it at work!!
In 1989 they came back against the Astros after trailing 9-0
😂😂😂 Loved that intro, Sam!
David bote walk off
Sam is giddy haha I love it! Great positive rant Sam!
We can beat anyone the way we're playing right now. Watch Out NL
I remember one wild comeback in 98 the cubs were down 10-2 against the brewers that was the day sosa hit his 60th and they came back and won 15-12 on a orlando merced walk off home run and the next day they won another wild one.
Whats the status on Jordan Wicks need him back Kyle cant pitch again next week against Pirates.
Even though it’s the slimmest of chances making the wildcard, I can’t be the only one really enjoying these games still.
Skeeeeens! I love Sam
How 'bout them Cubbies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hendricks is not the same. His changeup is way worse. He got incredible drop on that pitch in his good years. Now its more horizontal. May not seem like much but it is cuz that's his swing & miss pitch
I turned off the game in frustration at 10-3 only to be shocked when my curiosity got the better of me and I tuned in to that 9th inning 😮
Sam is a Cubs savant!
Glad Sam got to bring out the broom at least one more time this year!!!
Appreciated that enthusiastic point today too Sam! 😂🔥
Hendricks has absolutely 0 room for error with his command which is virtually impossible. He was hanging his changeup and 2 seamer from the first pitch. Also, even though they're winning these games the defensive miscues are very glaring. That and hitting with runners in scoring position needs to get way better if they want to contend
Just want to say, you guys are one of the best sports podcast I have ever seen. Everything is so well done, passionate, and professional and I look forward to these uploads every time. Love yall guys. Go Cubs
Boy what a game ,Amaya,PCA hott ,Benthacourt pretty good catcher ,we might not have to waste on a catcher.1 1 Minnesota. My heart this year was in fibulation all yr and we thought in July the rest of the yr gonna be sad but look at these heart attack boys can we make it ,I don't think the other 3 teams on fire ,but this season who knows love you guys have a great rest of the night.
Why was Smyly in the game with being on waivers?
Young Cubs still have some compete in them. Thanks for a great career Kyle Hendricks but you are done.
Boys this is what we need let’s hope we can go from here and not look back and stay hot go cubbies the old cub fan milt
WHY the hell is Kyle still a starter?
CC needs to use him as a 7th inning low leverage BP guy.
Let homie finish his career with a little dignity. Not embarrassing himself like the last 3 years.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the bats came alive KH would have been on line for his 12th loss this season.
I mean the guy is 13-24 since the start of the’22 season with an ERA of north of 5.50.
It’s time to retire. In the BP.
They’re Still Shitty !
Bote's GS against the Nats in 2018
Bethancout had a Week's work of production in one game 😂
If the Braves or Brewers go on a big skid, which has certainly happened down the stretch before… If the Cubs start believing and PCA plays like H.O.F. PCA, than anything is possible 👍
Anything below
CUBS
I went to the dmv in the 6th inning, was shaking in my seat watching the 9th inning on my phone
Hey Sam, your recall is INCREDIBLE. The way you can remember facts from YEARS ago is amazing. Hats off to you brother.
Trade bush and perades. Both suck!
I've been enjoying the hell outta these games the past few weeks.
Though I still have a ton of concern Hoyer is going to run it back with a couple middling additions to the pitching for 2025. I know the offense is on fire right now but for Hoyer to think they could perform like this for a full season would be a massive mistake on his part.
Hendricks got screwed by the ump.
Its weird guys. We are watching Amaya and Bethancourt basically turn into the best tandem in baseball for well over a month now. I just wonder if we still go after a name C in the offseason. Another scary thing is the Closer situation. I mean what if Lopez / Hodge go 10/11 down the stretch in Save Opps. Personally if we dont get a sure thing , im for sticking within. Ive heard Jansen , Holmes, etc. To me they arent sure things. Bednar is a good example of how it can go for a closer. Sure a good arm is still probably needed. Great sweep.
Dont sleep on the Nats.
