A Walk

Aroldis Chapman starts off the bottom of the ninth by walking Brandon Guyer. Joe Maddon lifts Chapman for Pedro Strop. Maddon didn’t trust his other relievers earlier, we’ll see if they can earn his trust now.

The Cubs lead the Indians 9-2.

Update: With one out, a wild pitch puts Guyer at second. He scores on a Roberto Perez shot to far rightfield to cut the score to 9-3. Jason Heyward, however, makes a great throw and nails Perez going for a double. With two out, Carlos Santana walks to keep the inning alive.

That’s it for Strop.

Update: Jason Kipnis misses the cycle by a triple as he pops out to end the game. The Cubs win 9-3, and force a game seven on Wednesday. This will be fun.
