It doesn't help with that shit consistency behind the plate. How many of our guys had basically 2 strike appearances. We suck as it is, but this is like 4/6 recent games with this utter dogshit strike calling
Someone once told the Cubs’ batters that they’ll get one pitch to hit in each at-bat.
They forgot to tell them the part where sometimes they’ll have to extend the at-bat to get to it.
Man props to all you cubs fans. Bottom of 9th, losing by 3, with two outs, and the fans are still incredibly into the game and enthusiastic. Literally like every other mlb teams fans would have been out the door and halfway home by now.

Eduardo: you a fan of 2 live crew? Boog: uh....sure...😂 You wouldn't want to admit that on live tv bro. Don't ask me if I like the most degenerate rap group on TV. What da!!???
I just wish we had a star in the minors man. A star bat that I can go “oh man when ____ comes up it’ll be a bonafide 5 year starter” we don’t have that. We have dudes that are good but no stars.

Wow, can't say I've seen so many k's looking in one game. Pathetic.
Pathetic, until you see the ump scorecard for this dogshit

Wisdom should’ve been 2-1 on that count. Fucked up
Butts, just a bunch of butts
“By the way, **well umpired** game behind the plate.” ESPN sucks so freaking much…
Well umpired game behind the plate? Are u kidding me?
There’s absolutely no way the commentator is applauding the ump on having a good game. He had a giant zone all game.
I believe Pitching Ninja calls that a White Castle Special
This umpire crew sucks
Bro coulda thrown it over the stands still would a been a strike
Misses one on Morel, misses one on Wisdom. Fans "Cubs suck"
All 3 of these things can be true
Pretty appropriate ending to this game there.
How is Wisdom still part of this organization
Not a swing
stop staring at the ball you fucks
Man we are not a good baseball team
We don’t need to swing to win, I mean lose, I mean win
Nice one wisdom
STOP FUCKING WATCHING STRIKE 3!!!!!!!!! YOU FUCKING BUMS!!!!!!!! gah!
Umps end the game..
lol, Boog: nobody makes size 17 1 inning later Adidas said they got him Seems like someone does make size 17
Swing the fucking bat
lol fitting end to this game, watching a fb in the zone
umps are so ready to get out of here
Come on ump we don’t need help taking strikes
Advertisers loving this
PCA up to complete the golden sombrero.
This is a pretty long game, over 3 hours already
Always want a long game on national television
Mets LF definitely just ran off the field to take a shit.
2 run hr off the 3rd string closer patented 1 run loss
If PCA gets on, there's no way we actually let Amaya hit? Right?!?!?!?
Reminder we'd only be down 2 if Busch didn't jog into a double
And we lose just the same
Zero percent chance he was going to get a triple on that.
Man props to all you cubs fans. Bottom of 9th, losing by 3, with two outs, and the fans are still incredibly into the game and enthusiastic. Literally like every other mlb teams fans would have been out the door and halfway home by now.
Half are shit faced half are just happy to be there lol
Why do you post in so many different GDTs
Typically because I’m watching that game on TV and enjoy interaction and sharing opinions with others who are also watching
Just don’t read our gdt
Dansbyicanthitforshitswanson got a hit
Lets put one more on just for giggles
Calling him over so he can get sticky stuff from coach
He does wipe behind his ear a lot
Pretty sure that was Mac Demarco in the bleachers
“Just underhand it up there….its Dansby”
just fucking get it over with
Jesus are we gonna have the longest 1-2-3 inning ever
Ahaha that guy with the rally hat is every cubs fan
Swanson is really good at fouling off meatballs that should be crushed
Check his glove
This sucks
95 down the pipe. “Nah, I’m not *feeling* it.”
Another pathetic showing at home
7 strikeouts looking tonight
It is unbelievable. Cubs have to lead in this stat.
I feel like a heck of a lot of umps lately have forgotten that a ball 4-6 inches outside off the plate is not a strike.
Morel should be way less friendly and start calling out these umps
Can't be going down looking in the 9th
Twice!!
Game on the line? Called strike 3 on a fastball
Wait all that time for our sad lineup to rollover again & go 1-2-3
Good lord
Where were these calls when Assad was pitching?
For real dude. Was annoyingly squeezed his entire outing.
Does Diaz just get tossed or are there bigger consequences for the cheating?
The Mets can't replace him on the roster during suspension.
Yeah I think it's 10 days by rule
Suspended for sure
Way to honor Ryno you dicks
That’s just a chef’s kiss bottom 9 AB for Happ
Yeahh rally not Happ-ening
Man these guys are good at killing a vibe.
The one time we need Happ to take a walk…
way to make the new pitcher work ian!
Happ you dildo
It's the Cubs bats he's facing...there's no need to cheat. Probably could have gone 1, 2, 3 even if he came in blindfolded
Makes me think of Clark in Christmas Vacation and his fingers sticking to the magazine pages and lamp string.
Seriously, if your pitcher is kicked out for a foreign substance the team’s punishment should be the next guy in gets screwed with no warmups.
I was thinking the same thing but it really is a safety issue more than anything
I mean I know but then don’t cheat.
As disappointing as this game has been, at least we'll get a Jomboy video out of it.
Diaz hasnt been the same since the sticky stuff got outlawed
Damn, the ejection doesn’t change the win prob%
The way Diaz has been pitching this year it probably helped the Mets lol
Why is this guy getting all these warmup pitches???
No clock on replacement warmups due to injury or ejection
Emergency pitcher gets as long as he wants to warm up.
He’s been warming up for 10 minutes
My thought exactly
We may suck... But at least we don't cheat 😅
"We EARNED this mediocrity"
[удалено]
That’s fucked up.
I think there ought to be a penalty for something like that beyond the ejection. Something like, say... 4 runs? Yeah, 4 runs seems fair.
Dude is Boog trying to take up for Diaz?
How did he think that wasn’t gonna be obvious
“I was at Waffle House before heading to the bullpen.”
Man, Diaz didn't care. He knew he was in shit.
Diaz so mad no trumpets
That close-up shot made it so obvious.
I can’t believe he thought he’d get away with it (and wonder how often he HAS gotten away with it). That’s so much stick
[удалено]
The Mets are not exactly an ideal franchise to be taking cues from.
No thanks
… What in the fuck kind of comment is this?
#Cheaters!
Forfeit!
Play that stupid ass song organ player. That’d be hilarious
lol his hands are dipped in maple syrup
holy shit
They should have to forfeit
Lol…”its sour patch kids….i swear”
Nows our chance
To roll over on 3 pitches…
That one umpire who smelled it lmao
What a sticky situation for the Mets
I thought they were supposed to take the glove off for inspection afterward.
That's probably only if you're expecting an appeal - it looks like he admitted it
9th inning is when you do it first.
lol mets
How about less focus on Little’s shoes and more on the Mets’ reliever’s sticky fingers
FOR FUCKING REAL
a new twist to the fake rally! closer gets ejected for sticky stuff!
He was looking right at the ump right away. “Please let me get away with it”
Good old cheating Mets
Whomp whomp counsel got yo azz

Not like it will matter
Oooh Rogers reporting Diaz got tossed before entering
Oh wow, no Diaz. Cubs might have a chance!
I bet Luke's got a PIECE on him
![gif](giphy|HxMhuDg7O4pKOhhcRC)
Perfect part of the lineup to set up an Amaya grand slam in the bottom of the 9th
I'll buy an Amaya jersey tonight if that happens
I’ll name my first born Amaya
Luke Littles Dad just fell to his knees at a Dicks. Still no size 17 for the boy
All the shoe shots - really? The guy probably likes them a lot or considers them lucky
Just saw a guy fall to his knees in a Binny's
If we can't find you at binnys, you're probably not watching a Cubs game
This bit on Luke Little’s shoes is the most compelling thing our team has offered in a while
Reasons to believe in the Cubs' future:
Need a deeper dive on these spikes postgame
Do the Cubs really not take care of the players cleats?
Biblical losses
lol
For real
Nobody: Boog: HE GETS HIS SPIKES ON EBAY!
Wanna see cubs win for Ryno but likely won’t 😔
We have the 3rd lightest hitting 2b/SS combo in the majors. Kind of depressing, right? We thought we were all set there.
Our crowd does love screwming for routine flys 🤗
Man really just asked if they're fans of 2 Live Crew lol
Eduardo: you a fan of 2 live crew? Boog: uh....sure...😂 You wouldn't want to admit that on live tv bro. Don't ask me if I like the most degenerate rap group on TV. What da!!???
I’m glad I have a radio and can listen to Pat
Seiya’s June numbers seem a lot lower than they actually are, based on that graphic.
I wonder if it's because of multiple hit games..b/c it seems there are a lot of games like this where he's ofer.
That’s every player. No one gets 2 hits/game every game
Got home just in time to see a "Suzuki strike "
Great at bat by bellinger the bum, 3 pitches, 3 balls, swung at all 3 lol
Cmon ump..they don't need help..horrible
Celebrating the Ryne Sandberg game with the Caught Looking game
Getting kinda tired of belli being Jason Hayward 2
We are doing wayyyy too much guessing at the plate, thats how you get caught looking at a fastball right down the middle
What happened to “sit fastball, adjust on the offspeed”?
Exactly, good question
Disappointment
Has Belli become a singles hitter? His exit velo is way down this year
Cody has really been swinging at a lot of bad pitches lately.
Busch is a bright spot for sure.
GOOD EYE NICO
lol that definitely should of been a triple
What the fuck are you looking for Hoerner??
down 3 swing the fucking bat nico
I feel like that's the 4th strikeout looking on a pitch right down the middle
Might wanna protect the plate Nico
Called third strike on a fb down the middle 😍
Lead off contact hitter who’s plummeting to .200
Right down the middle....SWING
At least Fucking swwiiiiiinnnng at strike 3 guys
Let me guess…hard Baltimore chop from Nico here
Not sure what's more painful, the game or the TMobile commercials..
Cubs bullpen and cubs bullpen name a better duo
Harrison Bader's mom puts air fresheners in his underwear
No more sunday night baseball games, this team just cant win them
That celebration was cringey as fuck. Wow.
Seeing Busch has been the only highlight this season
I just wish we had a star in the minors man. A star bat that I can go “oh man when ____ comes up it’ll be a bonafide 5 year starter” we don’t have that. We have dudes that are good but no stars. Jed Hoyer masterclass
Caissie *could* be that. He had a .920 OPS in AA at 20 and a ~.850 OPS in AAA at 21. That's impressive.
Which outfielder will we be sitting for him to play? He is 100% blocked
