I'm okay with that. They are playing 8 games in 7 days on the road against divisional rivals who are playing good baseball. Arietta has owned us at Wrigley. Where it went wrong was when we got Aretta out and its a 1 run lead, play your best the last 2.5 innings and go for the win.

Pitching Choate for more than 1 batter and especially to a RH bat is never going to end well. Matheny should know that after last years playoff meltdown.
