What happened to the basics? Like running out ground balls. And squaring up on grounders so you have a better chancing of knocking the ball down if you can’t glove it.
Astros had preciously won 5/6 while holding a 383-334 head to head record all time. Them moving to the AL was the best thing to happen to me NL central
Arrighetti did a lot better after the 1st inning but the offense just wasn't there to get runners in scoring position into home plate. It's been pretty frustrating to watch but maybe now that we're getting JV and Framber back there will be less of these kinds of games. GG Cubs
The woes of the 2023 ALCS were not address as needed. The Rangers were not overpowering. The Astros pitching fell apart. And they left about 50+ men stranded in scoring position during the ALCS. That s...t has caught up with them.
Perhaps they all actually have a life. Why waste time when they lose? Sad that many people spend their good hard earned money and precious time watching their losing teams . Which is all but about 10 teams.😂
Except it's not the same players. Offense is still solid, they lead the AL in hits. The pitching staff is non-existent though. They've yet to have two starting pitchers healthy at the same time. They start with just Valdez and Javier, then Valdez goes down. They get Verlander back, and then Javier goes down. Verlandar can't pitch every single game and none of their random starters can get more than 3 innings, so the bullpen is toast too.
Cutters from a RHP cutting in towards a lefty. Seems legit to me. Also, I'm fine with an ump favoring one side of the plate as long as he is consistent with it, and that guy was. He probably calls that a strike so that left handed hitters don't get hit by so many pitches. Honestly he's doing the hitter a favor.
i would have to agree. Assuming the box we're seeing is legit. everybody gets bad calls but those were the two they showed. cubs barely won, but we won.
@@cambium0 In fairness, I wasn't able to watch the game so I don't know if he gave that same pitch to Houston pitchers, but when the Astros' biggest bat is up (Alvarez) who has a great eye for the ball and draws just as many walks as strikeouts (which is extremely rare), for him not to offer at that pitch shows his plate discipline. But with guys on base, that was a big (terrible) call. Props to your Cubs for jumping all over our young pitcher early. I hope my boys can salvage this next game.
Unlike most people I expected a slow decline from the Astros this season. Rangers are WS champs and still bringing up top prospects and the M’s are trending upwards. But this is just an all-out collapse from Houston…
Losing is discouraging but moreover it's contagious. If a coach doest make major lineup and position changes ....then nothing changed. It's not rocket science. But to continue doing the same thing tells players to expect the same thing.A veteran coach is NEEDED!
Good job getting in done neris, but why the heck isn’t leiter our closer? He literally hasn’t allowed a run this season and has the best strikeout percentage on the team
C'mon stros........should of won this..bregman,YOURDON,and KT will probably all go five for five next game ...... ETHIER bottom of lineup hits in a game or top of lineup hits in a game. Come together..right now ...🎶
He’s got a hole in his swing. Especially when he’s batting lefty. Dips his back shoulder badly and pops up more than any other batter I’ve ever seen. Swings over top of anything right down the middle. Hope he gets some work done on that soon
Astros (DEI) GM Dana Brown said, "They sky's not falling"... meanwhile the Astros stock is plummeting, the rush to purchase tickets to games is cratering and the once desire to have and wear Astros merchandise is plunging... but despite this... D.E.I. GM Brown says that the sky is not falling... nothing to see here...
Altuve gets alot of hits but he's a one trick pony. He pulls almost every single ball towards left. Every time he is at bat the entire defense should line up on the left side of the field
And yet he gets it done and is on his way to be a hall of famer. Also, maybe look into the rule changes that started prior to last season that banned extreme shifts like that.
Warriors and Astros dynasties ending in the same year. Almost poetic.
The injured cubs are winning games. What a game 💙
Well, it's the Astros, so.....yeah.
cubs actually held a lead. miracles happens
Finally!
And managed to hold it, too.
Thought Neris was gonna Alzolay there for a minute!😦
His four seamer be hard but flat yo. His splitter and slurvy slider are really all he has.
Neris has been worse than Alzolay
The 2024 Houston Astros at 7-18 is wild 💀
I feel like they're intentionally tanking in order to dominate next season.
@@meganb.2249elaborate

Well I mean they have to start somewhere
Not as bad as the white Sox 3-21
Astros downfall is ridiculous
Thank You, Cubs! Dig them deeper!
Mi 2 equipos 😢😢😢😢😢 amados.
ANTHONY MARTINEZ!!Cubs is Astro daddy!!
Michael Busch has been real good for the cubbies 🔥 Cubs are injured and still winning games wait till Cody and Suzuki come back 🔥
Good all-around team win, padded a good lead in the 1st and key defense and pitching plays to hold onto a 4-3 win. Nice work cubbies!
Astros division title streak comjng to an end in an awful fashion
The AL west is terribly weak this year. Rangers are at #1 spot with a miserable one game above .500.
I hate being an Astros fan at times
Go Cubs go! We are waiting for the Suzuki comeback! 🔥
America's record is now 18-7 👏👏 way to go Cubs finish the sweep tomorrow💪

5:30 very smooth framing.
Ese equipo está en slump general que no la cojan solo con abreu.en ocasiones altuve tira un chispas o.pero en general todos están en la mism
Jamison is lot better this year, Go Cubs Go!
Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!!
Go Cubbies Go!!! 💙🐻💙
Nice to see things not changing since they moved out the division and see the Stros having issues against the Cubs. So cathartic.
Astros had preciously won 5/6 while holding a 383-334 head to head record all time. Them moving to the AL was the best thing to happen to me NL central
Thank you Cubs
Let’s go Cubbies!!!!
I don’t envy them playing in this chilly weather
Wasn't even that cold. Altuve needs to man up
Too damn cold to be playing baseball
GO CUBS GO!
Happy to see Astros get sweep
We had so many chances to take the lead.. And somehow never did.
GG Cubs
That's cause no drums were heard.

Man, the stros are painful. When even the A's are doing better than you there's a real problem Houston
Astros aren’t premier winners.
Y’all have no reason to be spoiled, your franchise is C class. 😂😂😂
Oh I have no love for them, it's just wild to me to see them riding the struggle bus this hard

These wins matter for when the dog days kick in.
What happened to Houston?
Juan Soto
our entire starting rotation from 2022 and depth starters are injured

Alright Cubs, you held a lead that whole game, now lets hold a sweep.
Astros fans are bandwagons when they’re losing, nobody is around to be found 😂
That's a weird thing to say, there's still plenty of fans but of course no one is gonna watch this when they know their team lost.
Well I think nobody is around because of stupid haters like you who never shut up

Tucker didn’t bat flip his line out to end the game? It’s like I don’t even know the guy anymore…
It's like a switch turned him off ever since the playoffs started last year. What a head case.
Altuve’s play on that ball up the middle perfectly encapsulates the year Houston is having so far, out of reach. GG
Cubs have the sticks......go after pitching and we'll being watching in October!
Let’s goooo CUBs
Let's goooooooo!!
Where's Abreu
Go cubs
How can this be a world champion team? Especially the same players.
Except it's not the same players. Offense is still solid, they lead the AL in hits. The pitching staff is non-existent though. They've yet to have two starting pitchers healthy at the same time. They start with just Valdez and Javier, then Valdez goes down. They get Verlander back, and then Javier goes down. Verlandar can't pitch every single game and none of their random starters can get more than 3 innings, so the bullpen is toast too.
The tank survives another game. :D
Go Cubs!
Those two big strikeout calls were pathetic. Killed what could have been moments. Robot umps can't come soon enough.
Cutters from a RHP cutting in towards a lefty. Seems legit to me. Also, I'm fine with an ump favoring one side of the plate as long as he is consistent with it, and that guy was.

So many umpire mistakes and it really is time to call time on home plate umpires. It needs to be electronic.
Астросы категорически не хотят выигрывать...и малыш ничего поделать не может!
Están jugando desactivados voten al manager y mejorarán
El problema también son los pitchers, la mayoría están lesionados
Love seeing the Astros be so terrible!❤
Good job getting in done neris, but why the heck isn’t leiter our closer? He literally hasn’t allowed a run this season and has the best strikeout percentage on the team

Happy striking out with bases loaded was the most predictable moment of this game 🤦
He’s got a hole in his swing. Especially when he’s batting lefty. Dips his back shoulder badly and pops up more than any other batter I’ve ever seen. Swings over top of anything right down the middle. Hope he gets some work done on that soon
Looks like a small crowd for Wrigley Field.
What do you guys expect no cheating, no Dusty Baker. The Astros are done already

Bush's glove scares me st first!
I see that MLB took their sweet time to post this….probably feels “sorry” for the losing Astros! 😂
It was a full slate and many games had a similar start time. I think it's more likely that you're impatient.
Absolutely they took way too long to post this 😂
Seems this year they are taking their time posting all the games. No big deal. Lots of people complaining about it, though.
Altuve gets alot of hits but he's a one trick pony. He pulls almost every single ball towards left. Every time he is at bat the entire defense should line up on the left side of the field

A one trick pony that has the 5th best batting average in all of baseball, lock for the hall of fame, and has 2 world series rings. Okay guy.
@phillipsouthard8285 you didn't read my post. He's a good hitter, that doesn't negate the fact that he pulls 98% of balls to left
MLB is scrwing baseball with permanent inter league games, they look so random
Cubs win 😂😂😂
