6/2 Cubs (Marshall) @ Cards (Ponson) 7:10 central CSN

[YearofDaCubs]

Ah, Barrett using the mask.

 

Automatic three bases. Good thing TLR missed that.

What happened with this? What does that mean?

It means if you use any kind of equipment to stop or scoop the ball the batter gets an automatic triple. Barrett used the mask to stop the ball from rolling which means if the umps saw it the player would be rewarded 3rd base.

[Guancous]

I would say that Marshall's flashes of dominance is the best part about this gruesome season. The development of Marshall, Murton and Cedeno almost make this worth it.

[RockTheIvy]

I'm pretty impressed with Marshall here. Marshall Law...

I agree. At least this year there are some kids making some impact, unlike last year where we had Enrique Wilson.

[Balsa]

YES! Easy 1-2-3 inning for Marshall. That's what I'd like to see more often!

Good ol' Barrett.

[A New Era]

Woah. Thought Marshall was supposed to suck away from home. I gave this game to the Cardinals but looks like we could take it.

Good ol' Barrett.

 

Also, if you throw your glove at a ball and hit it, auto triple.

And if you cold-[expletive] the opposing a-hole of a catcher...

Also applies to caps. So dont ever try to shag a fly with your cap in a game.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 15-14 when they get at least 8 hits..... 5-18 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[cubs121]

BARRET let the 3-1 fast ball right down the middle go away.... well he got a base hit!

Shh, don't say that yet. Don't you know about our bad luck karma around here?

We don't need that here.

[anemic offense]

[UMFan83]

Encarnation - .240/.274/.425

JOCK - .283/.317/.457

 

Looks like we made the right choice, despite the boneheaded plays. Still wish he had better OBP though obviously.
