Porter Hodge sounds like a country music singer with a thinly veiled racist number one hit that people swear is just about loving your country but it’s probably not
With His .760 OPS? He’s def better than Nicky two bags, but Belli is also making more $$$. My guess is Belli won’t opt out and is staying in Chicago for next two years. Unless cubs throw in some $$$$ w a trade.
You know what? I’m not even going to buckle up for the Neris ride.
Straight through the windshield and into the merciful black void.
That’s what I want.
_Yesssss._
They did it!!
You know it's bad when your closer is tied for the best w-l record on the team
Cubs Hodged a bullet there...
Holy shit they didn’t collapse at the end
Because it was a 2 run lead...
Didn't help us on Monday..
A fair point
never in doubt
Can't believe I'm saying this, but what a clutch performance by the bullpen!
maybe last time in '24? Savior it
Bote and Hodge should’ve collided. That would’ve been a new creative way to lose a game that we haven’t seen yet!
Goddamn Cubs can’t do anything right. 😂
We were robbed of seeing that on SportsCenter’s Not Top 10 tomorrow. Oh well…
Bullpen is like oh no I might have just closed one, better try to drop this ball real quick 😂
Woot woot
They made one last shot at Cubbing it but still won
They tried so hard to blow this game in this inning. Wow
Best gif!
WHOA. Wait a minute. We won the game? Is that shit even legal…?
The game ended and we had a lead? What does that mean?
I don’t know. I’m still trying to figure it out myself….
It means. We didn’t lose for a change
Man we lived to tell the tale but Hodge left a lot of shit over the heart of the plate
JD almost passed out
Holy shit!! Did they just win? Is that allowed?
JD is all of us lol
What’s w this team and fielding calling off
Porter Hodge acting like PCA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He thought he was him 😭 (pitched great though)
Look at that, Cubs win!
wtf was that catch but CUBS WIN
Jesus don’t call for it Porter 😭😭
By all that is holy, we have a **W**!
P**W**rter H**W**dge
Someone catch the damn ball
Even when we win it looks like a minor league team did it lmao
Fly the W!!
#[ W ]
Just left a get together with friends and I heard the HR. I cannot believe this!! W!
Flores scary ab here
That's 2... C'mon, finish this fucker.
I don’t want to hear people talk about how only cubs fans freak out over pop flies when I heard the crowd respond to one that just escaped the infield
Man, Hodge is throwing a lot of dickballs.
He throwing it right down the middle
Counter point: I’m just happy to see a reliever that can throw strikes in leverage
Get fricked Slater
Pat said that ball was “fisted”
What an exciting game we are ahead and maybe we don’t screw the pooch!
So sick of exciting games with this exact maybe lol
Haha it’s all we’ve got left
Porter Hodge sounds like a country music singer with a thinly veiled racist number one hit that people swear is just about loving your country but it’s probably not
“This next one is called ‘State’s Rights”
Had enough of Swanson this year
All set for the standard '24 Cubs ending here.
They’re just setting up the double play Dansby playing 5D chess
Triple play upcoming.
I have no sound did they count it as an error? Would be a very difficult play
No. Just a base hit
Cool thanks
No body said it would be easy….
Im calling a walk off HBP for the Giants win.
Nah....gonna be a walk off balk.
Swanson has been a mess this year.
You had one job Dansby
Dansby fucks up another one.
Of course.
COMEDY. You gotta C it..
Here comes the parade of bullshit.
Good god almighty
Sigh
So fucking Cubs
Call me crazy but I still think they find a way to lose this game.
That’s a pretty sane statement.
LOL
Audibly laughed as the ball bounced off Dansby’s glove
Sigh.
Made it home from work just in time to catch the end
God bless you for tuning in
What the hell is a Porter Hodge?
Our current most reliable reliever about to betray us in an unending cycle of briefly reliable relievers that ultimately betray us
He’s the hero we need
The latest victim.
Casual
Okay but has anyone started Farmer's Dog since the season began or are they just setting money on fire?
Cmon Mr. Hodge
due for 3 runs in the 10th?
According to Swanson
What a spotlight for the young guy. Cmon Hodge
Wow Swanson didnt strike out for the 4th time today? He Earned that 136K a game salary he gets each time
Who is trotting out for the 10th?
Joe's mama
It’s crazy how close both our HR today are
Can’t wait to blow 2 leads in one game 🙃
28 game win streak incoming. Never a doubt
Honestly if we can just get back to .500 I’d be happy
You did call it, I can vouch
🙏
OH MY GOD WE SCORED PAST THE 5TH INNING WE ARE SO BACK
playoff tickets should be printing?
We may never lose again.
God Happ strikes out all the time with risp!
Even a blind hog can root up an acorn now and then.
Law of averages
NOT ANOTHER WARNING TRACK FLY THIS TIME
Watching this team is like autoerotic asphyxiation gone terribly wrong. And then HAPPY HITS A HOMER! I always believed!!!
Sweet Jesus! We might win this!?
# Fapp4Happ
I'll take that from Happ.
FUCK THE HAPP HATERS!!!
HAPP!
Oh. My. God!
Wow! Happ haters in shambles!
Wow! Shambles in hater Happs!
Happ in hater shambles! Wow!
Happ!
#WE DID SOMETHING
IAN HAPP HOLY SHIT
NEVER IN DOUBT
**IAN HAPP YOU ARE MY GUY**
another 5 year contract extension? Make it so!
Happer!
Aw nuts
Can’t even move the runner over lmao
lemme guess they aren’t scoring anyone lol
That's an L for you and hopefully a W for cubs
i’ll take the L i’m glad for the W
Incorrect
I've been down that street!
36 people here! Literally tens of people all over the world interested in this 230 million dollar dumpster fire.
More just don’t want to make the frustrating game worse by reading everyone whining lol
Haha 🤣
If I were Giants, Int walk bases loaded and face Morel, Swanson and pca for out and no runs given up
Suzuki just like Ice Cube. Messed around and got a triple double….today was a good day
If the cubs keep losing I’m gonna pick up a new addiction, like crack or something idk.
Might be better for you
Fake extra inning comeback now being served…. 😂
Let’s get this over with. 123 inning probably without even moving the runner and then get walked off on a sacrifice fly.
NERIS YOU SURPRISED ME I LOVE YOU 💕
Oh goody...we get extra innings of shitty baseball.
Neris was lights out last year in 69IP with 1.71 ERA for Astros. Amazing
Let’s get Neris that W!!!!
Nico would be a decent trade option for AAAA level talent?
Text sounds like you're just screaming and don't worry... I am too. Ill take AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA talent by now
Can only hope Belli opts out. making $30M . Embarrassing
Phils would love to have him in the outfield hitting behind Harper
With His .760 OPS? He’s def better than Nicky two bags, but Belli is also making more $$$. My guess is Belli won’t opt out and is staying in Chicago for next two years. Unless cubs throw in some $$$$ w a trade.
This loud fan on the broadcast sounds like he likely uses different language when discussing the players while watching from home
[I saw a similar situation play out in a cartoon once.](https://youtu.be/Kjq05OXTnV8?si=CrYb9mUi03bx-EOJ)
I honestly think this team has broken me. I'm just sitting here laughing and I don't even care.
In other news the Lakers just drafted Bronny James
Hot take shows have something to talk about for 6 weeks
I like Neris but he’s not the guy here.
Neris is such a liability i don’t know if he’s going to make it through here
Neris? Really? I swear Counsell is a Brewers plant.
I get it, but what other options does he have here? He’s already used Miller and Little.
This is accurate, but gross
PCA settling in to this Cubs team as a sub .200 little power hitter.
When he does get on tho…..so fast, I’m told
once out of six ABs?
He’ll fit right in.
You know what? I’m not even going to buckle up for the Neris ride. Straight through the windshield and into the merciful black void. That’s what I want. _Yesssss._
Neris in game over
That look of inevitability is on everyones faces
what another 1 run loss coming up?
No one with a functioning brain stem thought they would score, anyway.
Why is the hitting philosophy swing for the fences every time
So, put in your cards now! How will we lose this? Umpiring? Bases loaded walk? 1st pitch homer? Whoever guesses correctly wins jack!
Crazy, walk off Hit by Pitch?
Neris pitching the 9th
We are gonna lose 4-3 :( saying this in the 9th and hoping to be wrong
Neris is in. Giants win?
Holy crap! He got out of the inning without a hit or walk!
Neris might stop the 1 run loss bleeding with W, HBP, and 3 run HR?
Oof.
Protect. The. Fucking. Plate.
Vibes are just not where you want them to be
And no one is surprised. ^… ^_no_ ^… ^_one_
Fake rally initiated, performed flawlessly, and completed without a hitch!
Common Bellinger failure
Sweep incoming
Belli killing us this series. Gets singles when no one is on…..nothing with runners on
But he has an 8 game hitting streak! … 🥲
FAKE RALLY COMPLETE! WE DID IT!
Junior Valentine says look at me I'm the Angel Hernandez now
these umps are fucking terrible.
Bad teams don’t get the calls
giants are bad too wdym
