All my "sources" to catch tonight's game won't work.

So I’ve spent the last 20 minutes finding this gif for you guys as ammo in case my brethren come by here to troll. It’s of a play that was a bucketload of fail. Tie game, bottom of the 10th, runner on 1st, and nobody out. The Brewers sac bunted their runner to 2nd. Not satisfied with trading just an out for a base, the Cubs decided to not take the out and instead give them all 3 bases, the run, and the win.

That’s right…. a walk-off sac bunt with a runner on 1st.

Anyways, enjoy. I’m out.

I was for it at the time because Snell was good but then wasn't.

And what we gave up wasn’t much at the time (still isn’t) so it isn’t that bad. I just kind of wish it turned out better.
