That's one of the bigger hits Cutch has had in a very very long time. Bucs now have a chance to possibly steal this game here at Wrigley.

Just out of curiosity, why doesn't Root Sports show the pitch tracker on every pitch? ESPN, I believe, does and at least one other network I've see. It would be nice to see where the pitches are going.

I'm not a psychologist, but I do a lot of cuonseling work. I wonder if pitching on the road was a help for TG. He didn't have to put up with the boos. I'm not blaming the fans that were there on Monday, but psychologically speaking, when someone is struggling with confidence, the absolute last thing you want to do is remind them about it. Glass Case actually showed a lot today and an ability to battle and throw some decent pitches. Hopefully this is a small little step forward and he can finally put together a winning performance his next time out.

Big time catch by Cutch in the bottom of the 7th.

Some good, clutch plays by the Pirates, suddenly.

Personally, I like that they don't. I find it annoying. If I want that info, it's readily available on the At Bat app. But I can see why someone would want it.

I find myself looking forward to his next start rather than dreading it, so that's significant progress I'd say.

RTJR! This somewhat makes up for the game blown against the Red Sox. Good win and nice to see Glasnow recover to pitch five

3-4 with RISP. Four HRs (three by the outfielders). Came back after down 4-0 in the first inning.

Glad we didn't forfeit that game.

Raise it.

Wow. Raise your hand if you had us taking one game in Chicago, let alone actually winning the series. Great win!
