Ceddanne Rafaela homers, drives in 7 runs to lead Boston's 17-0 rout of the Cubs

Ceddanne Rafaela homered and drove in seven runs, and Tyler O’Neill also went deep as the Boston Red Sox routed the Chicago Cubs 17-0 on Saturday. The 23-year-old Rafaela was asked if he could recall a time when he amassed seven RBIs in a game. The Red Sox established single-game season bests...

Candace Parker announces her retirement. Good career for her.

The White Sox SWEPT the Rays.

I... I don't even know what to say to that.

Scored 21 runs too - that's more than the previous 10 games. Weird stuff.

Durant organizing another palace coup against yet another coach



Durant is cancer to every organization he goes to. The Warriors were winners before he arrived and winners after he arrived.

Everywhere else he goes and gets "Control" turns into shitshow

Severino is doing something to the Cubs through 7.

 

[clydesdale line]

And Swanson ended it on a broken bat single. Hell of an outing from Severino.

Always nice to be part of a Metsing.

I woke up to see a 1-0 no-hitter through 7 and my immediate reaction was "this is a game the Mets lose"

Nuggets send Lebron home in 5 games

Good

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Never a bad night when an LA team loses.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Nuggets send Lebron home in 5 games

Good

However, what LeBron is able to do at his age (28/7/8 in the series) right now is simply incredible.

Umps need to work on their phrasing.

But walk off throw to the plate, baby.

 

[bwanajamba]

No idea how they can uphold that call but I will take it

Cubs have to have blown 6 or 7 games in the last half inning already.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

I knew they were in trouble when they didn't push another run across in the top half of that inning. This team is barely hanging on to their record and are lucky to even be where they are at. To props to them for keeping it together, but they really need some of their dudes back. And a better bullpen.

Steele/Wicks/Suzuki/Merriweather/Bellinger/Smyly/ on the IL.

Swanson/Happ/Mervis/Busch/Morel are either struggling or sucks.

What I am saying is that are neither fully healthy or playing their best ball. So for them to be where they are at currently......give Counsell the MOTY award. Grind it out until reinforcements come.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

The bullpen was an issue coming into the year. They went cheap. It's showing.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

They have six blown saves in fourteen chances. The Marlins have eight! In twelve.

Bullpens are violatile. I remember the Nats had a crappy bullpen and they pretty much turn the whole bullpen over during the season and they went on to win the World Series. Right now, I think the Cubs have a lot of guys pitching out of their comfort zone (for example, Neris as closer) Once everybody gets healthy and settled into their roles, I think the bullpen will be ok. It's just tough to watch right now.

This is my long-term hope as well. But I think they need to go get some more bullpen help too.
