2021-08-11: Brewers (Burnes) at Cubs (Arrieta) [Brewers win, 10-0 -- Burnes strikes out 15 and doesn’t allow a walk; Burnes also ties MLB record with 10 consecutive Ks]

On this date in Cubs history…

[LouisEly]

He's off the 40, so who cares? Send him out for 50-60 pitches or until the rainstorm hits. It's looking like an 8pm ETA for the rain, so that's likely 3 innings which is all they need out of him.

Hader back tomorrow

[yfinn6]

How's the weather looking?

[wibadgers23]

Radar looks pretty iffy after 8:30. Let’s get to the 6th with a lead.

It’s great now. But it says 100% chance of rain at 9 on my phone

[BruisedCrew]

This would be a great game for the Brewers to break their recent pattern of slow starts and put up 3-4 runs in the first 3 innings.

It’s time to put some runs up early. Take some pressure off our starters

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Braves up 3-0 early vs reds.

[bm1090]

Looks like they'll be able to play until 9 or so, 90 minute delay, then back at it

How do teams deal with this for half their games? I get frustrated just with road series in Pittsburgh and Wrigley. I like taking the roof for granted.

Braves up 3-0 early vs reds.

Brewers up early 1-0 vs Cubs

Even when Yelich gets hits it doesn’t look right

[adambr2]

Even Yelich's RBIs are a little tough to watch right now, but at this point take it how you can get it. Maybe something like that takes the pressure off and he can get things going.

[brooks_quichenick]

If Yelich is going to keep hitting balls into the ground, he might as wel hit 'em where they ain't.

[markedman5]

Arrieta has gotten 4 grounders but only 1 out……bad and unlucky is no way to go through life.

[jason21nl]

Great start

 

Until that happened

[PinaMadness]

If the Brewers continue to prolong these innings by scoring we'll never get five innings in.

Let's get this through 5 with the lead...

[pacopete4]

Good start!

[Underachiever]

Poor Avi

[brooks_quichenick]

Yikes, that didn’t look good. Two days in a row getting hit on the left hand for Avi

[PinaMadness]

If the Brewers continue to prolong these innings by scoring we'll never get five innings in.

And injury delays.
