Chapman is hittable I guess. Second series in a row where he couldn't shut things down.

Are you serious??? First off nobody is perfect. He just about struck out every batter with the bases loaded. He did an unbelievable job. Hats off. I predict that he will not give up more than 1 more run the rest of the series

I wouldn't go there. Kershaw on the mound abet on only a couple days rest. If there is 1 single thing we need, it's for a few of the players to have better st bats. Rizzo is completely disappeared offensively. Addie is swinging for the fences.

Walking Heyward was there undoing

Cubs are looking solid but let's go dodgers baby, well fight till the bitter end, if wasn't for those two botched sliders, to a 190. Batting average I think we could a had a chance, at least for extra innings!


Anyway game two let's getum!

You are kind of stating the obvious. I was saying he is almost unhittable. That is a compliment dude. I would take you up on that bet for sure. Just the series or the entire playoffs?


Dodgers will choke like they always do.

my buddy was at the game and he said the place was out of control. he said after montero hit the granny everything is a blur, his voice is trashed. uber was charging $200 from city to burbs about a 30 minute ride ...

The fire started at about 9:00 p.m. on October 8, in or around a small barn belonging to the O'Leary family that bordered the alley behind 137 DeKoven Street.[2] The shed next to the barn was the first building to be consumed by the fire, but city officials never determined the exact cause of the blaze.[3] There has, however, been much speculation over the years. The most popular tale blames Mrs. O'Leary's cow, who allegedly knocked over a lantern; others state that a group of men were gambling inside the barn and knocked over a lantern. Still other speculation suggests that the blaze was related to other fires in the Midwest that day.

The fire's spread was aided by the city's use of wood as the predominant building material in a style called balloon frame; a drought before the fire; and strong southwest winds that carried flying embers toward the heart of the city. More than two thirds of the structures in Chicago at the time of the fire were made entirely of wood. Most houses and buildings were topped with highly flammable tar or shingle roofs. All the city's sidewalks and many roads were made of wood.[4] Compounding this problem, Chicago had only received an inch (2.54 cm) of rain from July 4 to October 9 causing severe drought conditions.[5]

In 1871, the Chicago Fire Department had 185 firefighters with just 17 horse-drawn steam engines to protect the entire city.[6] The initial response by the fire department was quick, but due to an error by the watchman, Matthias Schaffer, the firefighters were sent to the wrong place, allowing the fire to grow unchecked.[6] An alarm sent from the area near the fire also failed to register at the courthouse where the fire watchmen were. Also, the firefighters were tired from having fought numerous small fires and one large fire in the week before.[7] These factors combined to turn a small barn fire into a conflagration.

I bet chap will have another 10 k's by the time the series is over, but he will allow 3 runs in one game. With that said, he is the best I have seen in a long time. Amazing dude.

have you guys watched the movie or documentary called Fastball on Netflix? Nolan throws harder than Chapman, check it out and the science behind it. Very cool flick.

Nolan Ryan was something we may never see again. He defied physics. Chapman is good, but he ain't no Nolan Ryan!

nolan ryan was a robot ~

guys like doc gooden, rob dibble, can toss gas for a few years then hit a wall. or guys flame out quick like the mets rotation or mark prior or kerry wood ....

ryan threw 100 from inning one - nine and did it until he was an old man, like 45 or something crazy like that ....

Exactly. Most guys would flame out long before the 7th inning at just 100 mph. Much less 105 to 107
