Is Freeman still leading the first base vote? Cause he should be
>on pace for 44 homers and 126 RBIs

braves broadcast just said he was leading by 1%

Whata grab by Freeman

The brafs needed Mad Dog to get that ring in that decade of choking they had in the 1990s.
By default, tat means the Cubs have 4.

You're right, but they live rent-free in the heads of lifelongs.

So are Braves running a massive voter suppression campaign to get Freeman into the All-Star game?
It would be in the spirit of how Georgia runs their elections.

I'm a cubs fan. They're not even in our division. Fuck the cardinals

>wahhhh my gapped tooth fat black lady was robbed by those evib russians

>They're not even in our division
That's what makes it even more pathetic.

Most dodgers fans hate the cubs as much as some cubs fans hate the dodgers. I don't see it as a rivalry yet

Just need another 6 dingers from schwarber!

No, just classic, anti-American voter suppression.
Although he basically did invite the Russians the hack the results by refusing to fix clear security flaws found and then blamed everyone else when he was exposed for allow it.
Stay mad that Illinois doesn't resort to those tactics and is an actual baseball city that doesn't need to steal a team.

>voter suppression.
why do you think shitskins are too stupid to vote?

Gonzo is due for a homer

Don't forget to vote for good boy Tommy La Stella

>Illinois
>the most corrupt State in the Union

And here comes the umpball!

both were strikes

Why CarGo salty?

Not with how he was calling them for Chatwood.

Damn it you're really leaving chatmeme in? Come on let's turn to the pen

>Be Georgia
>Be so corrupt that the Federal government forces you to check in with you before you make any changes to your voting laws.
We should do the same with the All-Star vote.
Obvious corruption going on.

4-game sweep of the mets :)

4.5 games and 4 when the cubes are through with you :)

We would have gotten more if not for Cargo getting massively umpballed on that 5th pitch.
Because the same pitch was called a ball for Chatwood. So no crying about about the zone itself. Ump is not being consistent.

Let's be fair CarGo is washed up and shouldn't be in the lineup anyway. This will help us in the later innings.

>Us
Fuck off

That'll do Chatwood, that'll do.

Freeman is the best 1B in the NL. Deal with it.

RIZZO WITH A DOUBLE TO SCORE BRYANT!
5-6

It's not over yet!

Wouldn't it be funny if Baez hit a home run here, it would mean Chatwood would get the win.
That would be hilarious.

Reminder that Rizzo would have made that catch Freeman muffed on at the wall.
It's Freeman's fault the Cubs took the lead. He's a total bust, not All-Star material.

Meh, rather be in Illinois than Alabama, Georgia, or Louisiana

Cubs have to survive for 2 more innings before Kimbrel comes in to lock it down.

It feels like this game has gone on for 12 innings.

>Rizzo's in his 9th season

I'm not sure what's more shocking, Rizzo's been in the league for 9 seasons now, or he only has 2 golden gloves.

The best 1B, at being anti clutch!

Almora hasn't been the same since he gave that girl brain damage

Embarrassing that hes even being considered for the ASG desu

His defense is top tier, but he's clearly too emotional. Almost kill one little kid and he goes to pieces.

SHE GOT EYES OF THE BLUEST SKIES

IT'S TIME FOR KIMBREL!

His defense doesnt make up for a lack of an AB. His obp is below .300 he rarely works walks.

umpball

Not so cocky when you're on the receiving end Barfs?

heh nothin personal kid

This insult was relevant in 2014

Lol that quieted down this crowd

Still relevant today

Even Cubs fans know this is going to be disastrous. it always fucking is.

What the hell are doing Kimbrel?

Rizzo with his best defensive play of the year

Why are you so mad? The Good Guys won.

What is with the singing?

You always sing when you win.
Doesn't your team have a victory song?

>Braves win
Shitposting everywhere and insults the other team

>Cubs win
GG's and no gloating

We know who the good guys are

gg racist team

You're not lovable losers anymore. There's nothing there to care about.

We're still lovable :3

Reminder that the McCann strike out was umpball in favor of the Braves because he argued with the ump for twice as long as Cargo did and didn't get ejected for it.

That's because the umpire knew he was wrong in regards to McCan's at bat.

If it was really umpball, he would have doubled down and threw him out for arguing balls and strikes. He didn't.
Ergo Umpball in favor of the Braves, again.

>Get the umps to favor you all series
>Still could only split it
LOLOLOL

losing to Kimbrel hurts, more so that the front office was too cheap to sign him

good game Cubes, don't fuck up the division to the sewers and we can play again

>>Get the umps to favor you all series

Lol u scared faggot? We'll see you at the end of the season.

Try not to have the Umps bail you out next time.
