Pirates vs. Cubs Game Highlights (5/18/24) | MLB Highlights 

Applause to the pitchers and fielders of both teams. MLB seems to love batting battles, but nothing can replace the tense atmosphere of pitching duels.

Imanaga isn’t adjusting to the MLB, the MLB is trying to adjust to Imanaga.

Imanaga and Assad are just absolute studs this year! FLY THE DUB!

LOVE YOU SHOTA!!!! GO CUBS GO!!

ラスト1球の時にスタンディングオーベーションで、昇太を応援してくれてみんなありがとう

Morel is a supercharged player in the show now🎉

Ichiro, Ohtani, Imanaga... Japanese players are breaking major league records! Hey, Pete Rose, don't you think NPB is the best?

How can you not love Christopher Morel?

The rest of the team needs to start stepping up for Shota like he is for them... Its kind of embarrassing. Glad we got the W.

Belli coming in clutch

What if Imanaga, Ohtani, Yamamoto, and Darvish at the same team? Can't imagine it.

シカゴ良かったね！ シカゴは日本人も多いよね！大切にしてくれよ

Christopher “Clutch” Morel!🔥

That was quite a pitching duel in Wrigley Field Imanaga-san could be NL Rookie of the Year and candidate for Cy Young, Phillies' Ranger Suarez is top notch as well

1-0 with the wind blowing out at Wrigley Field: has this ever happened before?

Nice Imanaga !

If Imanaga continues like this, there is a real possibility that he will win the Rookie of the Year award, which was joked about at the beginning of the season, and even the MVP award at the same time. Good luck Imanaga.

Shota “SHOW TIME” Imanaga!!!

Nice to see the Cubs bats show up for Shota! Made things a lot easier for him!

Imanaga should have more wins, the offense got to start producing runs early so I can stop stressing out during the game #gocubsgo

After all, it was the standing ovation from Chicago Imanaga fans when the score was 0-2 in the seventh inning with two outs and runners on 1st and 2nd base in a pinch. A standing ovation usually occurs after a strikeout or a home run, but before the last pitch, everyone stood up and applauded, giving Shota strength in his pitching.It was the best moment. This is omitted in most digests, but in real life, everyone lent their strength to Shota, and in that moment when Shota struck out and roared in response to the fans, the hearts of Shota and the fans became one. I was moved to feel it

Himanaga!!! What a straighup stud for the cubs ❤

Go Cubs

GO CUBS GO!

Clutch Christopher 🔥

Cubs are going to be playoffs this year guaranteed...Cubs are the real Chicago team

Need nico and dansby back. Badly.

Shota is gonna win Cy Young and MVP

Wow! Scoreless game came down to a ball knocked out of the catcher’s glove. I’m shocked they sent Bellinger with where the ball was when he got to third.

When he was an NPB player, he used to pitch while singing cheering songs for his opponents.He is a very mysterious man-a very mysterious man

It's magic

This is missing the call under review part of the game. It was a great game to be at. First time singing Go Cubs Go at Wrigley.

WOW! - Great game!

Great game and pitchers duel. The safe call for Bellinger after review was wrong though. The ump show has been insane this year, and when the review team in New York gets it wrong too it’s a tough scene

What is wrong with our offense Nico please get back quickly

my boi chris for the save!

GG Cubs 🐻

Fly the W! Go cubs!

despite the loss, great start from falter. nothing to be mad about there.

7 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 7 K Paul Skenes? The Cubs have a "pitching philosopher" named Imanaga. He lectures weekly on how pitching is not just about pitch speed.😂

GG Cubbies! Lets win tomorrow! :3

The Chicago Cubs are 26-21🔵🔴⚪️🐻

Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!! Cubs Win!!! Go Cubbies Go!!! 💙🐻💙

Cubs ❤❤❤❤

Love the part where they show the ball being smacked out of Barts hand

ムエンゴ(no support)

Watching Cubs game only because of Imanaga.

Cubs4lyfe!!!

That was a great pitcher's duel. Cubs Win!!

Incoming jomboy breakdown🗣️🔥🔥

This Cubs offense is Mariners-esque.

shota and javier are the only scary players on this team. other than that…it's not scary at all

이마나가 득점지원 좀 해줘라

Imanaga unlucky that his team bad in offence

Besbol🇺🇲⚾️⚾️

Woohooo!

Inamaga should have been 8-0, they can’t even gets some runs for him..

The Cubs are a shabby team like the Angels. Imanaga shouldn't be on a team with such a weak batting lineup. His career will be wasted. He should move to a stronger team like the Yankees or Dodgers.

He was out at the plate

Pirates Series WINS 4-2 ☠

SHOTAime😀

Ump vs pirates the announcers where pissed manfreds always been a joke like the umps this season 😂

The worst part about this loss is that Falter, the Pirates starting pitcher, arguably out pitched imanaga today, he was incredibly efficient, 7 innings in and he had 67 pitches with 1 walk and 1 hit. Too bad the bad umpiring will overshadow it….

I MISS HORNER :( Madrigal and Mastraboni are just not good enough

今永はまだ未完成の投手であり、チームと共に完成に近づく。

SHOTA IMANAGA🇯🇵🗾

start at 7 min 45 seconds

Actress Joanna Jojo Levesque is the Chicago Cubs Walk-off Movie.

There's a reason why they don't show the replay, they know it was the wrong call. Not a PIT fan but the call is abysmal, the tag was applied, Bart took the ball out of the glove and got it knocked by Bellinger.

W

今永だけで勝った試合って感じ😂しかし、本当打たれんな🎉🎉ナイスピッチ！

That play at the plate was really tough to tell if belli was safe or out

Pirates Series Lead 3-1 ☠

Where is skenes?

How many pirate catchers will drop out at the plate? Great starting rotation. Weak lineup at best. Lousy bullpen. Oh yea, Buccos are goin places.

Imanaga el profesor madox japones sin gran velocidad🤣😂😁

FlydW

ボール落としてなかったら完全アウトだったな。

He didn't drop the ball Bellinger was out

I love watching cubs fans get exited that their pitcher performed well against THE PIRATES who have Andy Haines as their “hitting” coach… it’s like cheering on your child for bullying the handicapped kid at school 😂😂😂 Plus Bellinger was out and the umps handed you a win 😂😂😂

그 마지막에 벨린저 아웃인데..

相変わらずのムエンゴ😖サヨナラ勝ちして良かったよ。

Always nice to win the close ones. Seems like that was an issue last season.

MLB can’t even get the call right

WARNING: This page may contain a storm of battles between Cubs and Pirates fans. View at caution!

NPB>>MLB

First

Absolutely horrible call at the end

5th comment

Pirates fan here. He was out.

Must be nice to have a job like the umpires with zero accountability
