Another RBI double for Castro. Shocked that he hit two straight
balls on a line drive.

Castro has 8 hits in his last 23 AB with only 4 K's in those 23
AB.
I was unaware hitting had picked up so much that everyone else
in the game right now is doing better than that.

5-0 Cubs on 11 hits in the 6th. So great to get contributions
from Castro, Soler, and Ross.

Make that 9 for his last 24.

Arrieta is dealing. If we can sneak into one od the wildcards,
he's the guy I want on the mound. Hopefully we get a couple
more runs and they can get him out of the game with a relatively
low pitch count. He has a huge start on Sunday. Lester is
apparently going to pitch on Friday now with Hendricks moving
back to Saturday.

Despite the results, I don't think Arrieta was really on
tonight. He didn't miss a ton of bats, and he was falling
behind batters all night.
That's just how good he is now...even on a night where it didn't
seem like everything was working, he was still capable of
throwing a game like this.

Today is apparently only the second game all season Castro has
had two extra base hits on the same game. Kind of illustrates
how bad his season has been. Let's hope it is not his last this
year.

I would definitely bet on Starlin in that wager

The Cubs' Twitter account just retweeted this:
Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka
Jake Arrieta: 9 straight quality starts.
1.37 ERA in 65.2 IP, 37 Hits, 63/16 K/BB, 1 HR allowed (1 HR
hit) over span.
Kershaw and Greinke get a lot of attention because they had/have
the long scoreless streaks...but Arrieta has been just as good
over the last couple of months.
