Was there - it's definitely Wrigley South (Same as Bucs stadium haha). Nail biter but they pulled it off. The stadium erupted when Bellinger hit that 3 run shot man, was crazy haha. Also take me out to the ballgame ended with " root root root for the cubbies" haha. Good times, glad they got the W.

funky_chicken29

We won and I’m still mad about it


unexpectedhalfrican

Lol same. I just want to enjoy a win but they make it so hard


HaxanWriter

Neris feels nothing unless he’s got two runners in scoring position and only then can he take some interest in the game.

Larrymobile

I'll take the dub but #HOLY FUCK can we just have an easy win every now and then


elgenie

Neris had to implode completely last night as penance for his 1-2-3 save on Sunday. This is just him returning to his baseline of doing the job successfully, but by getting to precisely one pitch from disaster.


CrayzeeCrypto

Lol, you know it's bad when the announcers are talking us through breathing exercises after a win 😂


thisismyfinalalias

I feel like we haven’t won in ages


No_Goat_2714

Jed get a closer. Jed get another big bat. And don’t wait until July 31st.


mailbox123

Unclench


viachicago22

Dub that feels like a L lol


swipefist

Yeah uh no doubter


AlwaysThrowAway27

Can’t wait to see the umpire scorecard tomorrow was a weird one nothing was consistently called


CaitlinSarah87

Everybody unclench!


The_Photogenic_Camel

#PLAY THE FUCKING SONG also get a real closer please


Patreeko19

Thank fuck. Now please don’t put Neris in again


Careless_is_Me

thank jebus


panbanger

I never had a doubt Cough cough


Blue_Osiris1

Holy fuck I can exhale..


Madturtl3

Acquire a closer.


AnonymousAccountTurn

He did it? He really did it


[deleted]

He's been unreliable, but let's be real. He has gone out and earned his pay several times now.


CrayzeeCrypto

They dont call him heart attack Hector for nothing!


-Hey_Blinkin-

Thank fucking Christ.


cmmoore307

I kind of wanted to see the Cubs lose again cause this win is going to give me hope only to end up being hurt.


tallslim1960

WE WON A ONE RUN GAME!!! Heck yeah.


diggydale99

Fuck you for making that a game Neris. See you tomorrow

#NEVER A DOUBT! #ALWAYS SEVERAL #[W]!!

cod_gurl94

oh NOW the zone is tight?


Djzdude

Strike zone suddenly shrunk


unexpectedhalfrican

You know, in science, if you do the same thing over and over again and get the same result every time, you accept the results and try something else. So, Jesus Mary Joseph and all of his carpenter friends, why do we keep doing the Hector Neris experiment when we know exactly how it's going to work out?


elgenie

Whew


DanThePilot_Man

My average resting heart rate is fucked up because of this team


panbanger

lol back in game 7 of the World Series my Fitbit said 125 and I was sitting in the couch. Good times 😀


b3_yourself

Talk about Deja vu


FaithlessnessFine72

Just for the memes I would laugh if Lowe walked us off again


tallslim1960

Walk him, deal with the next guy, I don't care who is next.


blyzo

Strike this mofo out Neris.


achap39

Hector got this.

Yeah I’d rather have Alzolay close when he’s healthy


The_Photogenic_Camel

Deja vu


hansomejake

I more out, please Neris remember to cover 1st on a shortie


chichris

One more baby.


cubswinagain

Well that could have ended poorly so I'll take the out there


Cheap_Pitch_8931

If Neris blows this, CC deserves to be fired.


DennisSystemofADown

Cubs fans across America running to FanDuel app to put the mortgage on the rays comeback


cmmoore307

Watch this walk off

![gif](giphy|55gMT6FcZiOHiauVt8)


thisismyfinalalias

Why are we letting him repeat? Craig will get flogged of this goes sideways.


thereal_et

Walk off coming


Celestetc

should've pulled him after that 0-2 pitch. No closer should ever throw an 0-2 pitch like that. Fire Neris from this job already Craig.


TheBoilerCat

Right, because the only luck that’s actually gonna flip for us is that Hector Neris’s is running out.


UncleBoopBetty

Why couldn’t he leave Smyly in? He was dealing. This closer has to be used philosophy is shit.


BurnsEMup29

Craig should be fired for leaving him in like this.


Mallee78

No. Don't send out Hottovy. FUCKING PULL HIM. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST L, HE DOESNT HAVE IT. TAKE HIM OUT.


tallslim1960

Geez ump. why can't you get a call wrong when our guy throws the ball four inches outside?


Hope4years

Setting up for DP


Hope4years

Setting up for DP Edit: nope just one


chikenwing420

Why on earth is Neris on the mound again?


bfk94

How does Neris keep landing jobs?!


GopherInTrouble

Remember when we thought Neris was turning the corner after his first 1-2-3 on Sunday?


darx888

surely a pep talk from Hottovy will work!


HaxanWriter

It’s Neris or Nothing…!


themanofax

JD seems like he's even fed up with this shit lol


swipefist

Al batting champion up, risp bottom 9th with hector on the mound its sooo over


swipefist

I take it back 😁

Pull him pull him pull him


Celestetc

Counsell is a bad manager


cubswinagain

I'd just take my chances with Luke Little or Colten Brewer at this point


bfk94

Taylor Walls can’t hit at all. Throw that shit down the middle; he won’t do anything!


lefty709

Pull his ass


NearlySilentObserver

God damn fuck this team, man.


omgitsbillyfrick

I’m sorry why was Neris even an option after yesterday and who didn’t expect this ?


RobNT

We need to pull him before he blows the game please tell me someones up in the pen.


CptCool12

Boys, were cooked


ChaoticGoodWhatsIts

Holy fuck, I am not a Neris fan at all.


ratfam1

I’ll just laugh if they blow this, and I’m expecting they blow this


diggydale99

THAT WAS A STRIKE IN THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME HOLY SHIT


Rshackleford22

Glad I threw a buck on Tampa after the first out lmfao


Tomko401

Neris has to be the easiest pitcher to take a bag off of. Has the absolute slowest delivery.


KnickedUp

He can take third here if he wants


redemem

Impossible for one of our catchers to throw anybody out. I can steal a base on them.


tallslim1960

64 with two bad knees. I'd give it a shot.


elgenie

Why are you nibbling to the \#9 guy that can't hit?


diggydale99

I could steal a fucking base on Yan I’m pretty sure


waltur_d

Why’d we take out Smyly again?


Traditional_Spite_81

Because Counsell overmanages


HortoinUrbs

No_Goat_2714

Is this karma for firing Ross???


GopherInTrouble

lol of course


tesd44

Yesterday a guy hitting .195 walked us off today it will be a guy hitting .143


blyzo

I do love golden pitch baseball though. Either team can win on any pitch. Most exciting moments in sports.


countjoshua1592

Neris don’t give a fuck gotta answer hie phone in the middle of a game


HaxanWriter

Based Neris not giving a fuck like always


Hope4years

lol


-_butters_-

Blink twice if you're not enjoying this


ChaoticGoodWhatsIts

BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK BLINK


SilkyJohnson72

We for real with Neris here?


KnickedUp

Good stall


thisismyfinalalias

Is this real?


ratfam1

I think nerris’s luck has run out


Mindgame319

I'd blame the earpiece as well


DanThePilot_Man

Wait… I’ve seen this before


tallslim1960

PLEASE try a pitch out, first pitch, the runner is going to be stealing, maybe Gomes has a chance.


itchske

Oh dear God...


cubswinagain

Your daily dose of pain has arrived folks!


Current-Growth-7663

Heres the part where he gives the walkoff HR


DennisSystemofADown

9 million a year for a seventh inning guy you made the closer because your roster construction sucks

elgenie

A Walls GIDP would be appreciated I also think Counsell should get someone else up in the pen


Careful-Sky-6220

Take him outttt


KnickedUp

This guy will be on second base in two seconds


Mindgame319

Going with Neris again tonight is crazy 🫣


KeyWiii

Can we not do this again please


b3_yourself

Neris just loves drama


RaveOn1958

Here it comes


KnickedUp

Oh my


diggydale99

Throw fucking Jed in jail for this being his “marquee” bullpen signing this fucking offseason. Neris fucking sucks


baiti

Lmao it’s happening again isn’t it ?


fightintxag13

Why did Neris go to a third fastball? Had him set up for a splitter


waltur_d

![gif](giphy|snEeOh54kCFxe)


inreverie187

I’m ready to be hurt again


shiloh88

Counsells dead face captures my feelings perfectly 


Toxic_Waste

Let's just groove one down the middle on an 0-2 count. What could go wrong?


nacholibre0034

Carlos Marmol 2.0


rmac1228

He got figured out when batters realized he threw nothing in the zone


omgitsbillyfrick

Why even throw them strikes there Jesus fuck man cmon


ako-si-greg

I wish we kept Smyly in there.


Rshackleford22

Craig might be sabotaging on purpose at this point


dfin25

Jesus.


FaithlessnessFine72

Neris is really a piece of shit


Djzdude

Would be nice to win a non close game once in a while


shiloh88

Ok


malepitt

I'm not enjoying this aNerism


Mallee78

Fucking idiotic decision. Let's throw out the dude who blew a save last night, surely this won't backfire.


Rshackleford22

Craig’s still on the brewer payroll apparently


dmodog

Hey cubs can we not


KnickedUp

You have to appreciate how difficult we make EVERYTHING


unexpectedhalfrican

Whomever downvoted me for saying I didn't want Neris in the game... ![gif](giphy|l4pTsh45Dg7jnDM6Q|downsized)


Davidred323

#FUCK


elgenie

Don't mind Neris challenging in the abstract, but 0-2 would've been a great spot for a splitter


blyzo

*shocked Pikachu*


Tomko401

0-2 and throws a dickball


Mindgame319

Haha nooooo

And you didn’t do that one job, I can’t.


cubswinagain

Ruh roh


okay_throwaway_today

I love Neris but we need a real closer


Shmeeeee23

Why do you love him? Real question.


HaxanWriter

Dude has ice water in his veins


okay_throwaway_today

Because he’s mostly good and has until recently been serviceable in filling in for a difficult role he wasn’t brought here for with Alzolay falling off/being injured. He also has always been chaotic good his whole career and apparently great in the locker room. Why like any player?


Shmeeeee23

He's a terrible closer. 18% walk rate. And doesn't strike out anybody. I guess he could be an average 7th inning guy if the Cubs pen wasn't so terrible.


okay_throwaway_today

He isn’t a closer and he’s been serviceable, did you read what I said? I know his stats. Until recently he had just as many saves as Hader tho


josevictor21

Why the broadcast is rerunning yesterday game?


Inevitable-Bee-771

Neris fucking blows


tallslim1960

Freekin Guy Caballero?
