Bad inning for Davis.
Bad inning for Davis.
Francona messed this one up. Miller should have been in at least after hitting Rizzo. Kluber is clearly not on tonight.
Kluber is clearly done after 4. Time to bring in Miller.
Kluber knocked out after 4.
Yep, Francona has been great, but he botched this one. I know he is limited, but you have to go to Miller and just let him go as long as he can, then figure it out from there. He tried to let Kluber sneak a few more outs in, and it killed him.
Man, I am just ready to get the off season started.
If the Cubs can add a few more runs, then they can save Chapman for tomorrow...

With a 3 run lead I would leave Hendricks in for the 5th.
No way I take out Hendricks yet.
No need to take out Hendricks right now. The Cubs are starting to smell it now.
We are about to see if the Indians have any fight in them.
This is what happens when you only have a 3 man pitching staff.
Sounds like a Cubs home game. This is really something.
With Lester ready to go 2 innings there is no reason to let Hendricks face the middle of the Indian lineup for a 3rd time in the 6th. I would not have brought Lester in with a runner on base though.
