Game Thread Chicago Cubs vs. Pittsburgh Pirates Wednesday 8:08 pm

[Lillie]

As I say goodbye to Rick I say hello to a new season. Goodbye Yankees. Hello Bucco's and Cubbies.

 

[Rick2583]

Don't know if there's a Giants (NY) board but I'll stick around here for the playoffs.

GO CUBS!!!

Don't worry my friend I will make a Game thread here every week, but I will not be posting on any Yankee Threads until March.

Two of best teams in the game today. It should be one heck
of a game. Lots of prime talent on both teams.
It's a toss up as to who wins this game.

 

[Rick2583]

You realize that if the Cubs win (and I hope they do) that it'll be the 2nd straight year that the Pirates lost a wild card game (Giants).

lineups?

 

[totus44]

I'm rooting for Pirates and Cisco "Fist Pump" Cervelli!

Pirates lineup vs the Cubs lineup.

GO CUBBIES!

 

[Pastafazul]

got 2 go with the cubbies, they took a chance on me not once but twice... helped give something back with a minor league ring, hope they "go the distance" and get rid of the goat curse

 

[cagedlion]

I'm rooting for Cervelli. At least he has a personality, something
Cashman frowns upon. This GM us such douche!

 

[Lillie]

Early on doesn't look good for the Buccos.

 

[Lillie]

lineups?

Didn't get around to it today but I will have both games on Thursday with Lineups. Is that ok with you Sir??? lol

I'm watching hockey tonight but checked in on the game. Doesn't look good for Pittsburgh with Arrietta mowing them down out there.

Great opening night win in Chicago. An excellent game. The Blackhawk fans leave the building happy though after seeing the Cubs score.

Hey Vic did Mats Zuccarello play tonight or is he still hurt.

 

[Rick2583]

Good for the Cubs but with Arrieta going tonight he'll only have one turn in the next series.

I wanted the Buccos to win but I'm ok with the Cubbies. Just beat those damn Cardinals.

Yes, he played. All good now.
