THROW STRIKES

 

whatever your trying to do with your font, it isn't working.

 

This has the potential to be a devastating loss if the reds can somehow pull this one out.

 

The font looks okay to him, but for those of us without premium we see all the tags before and after.

Why is it that the Cubs seemingly always have a ton of games against the Reds at the beginning of the year when they aren't terrible?

 

While it may seem like that the Cubs still have 12 games left vs the Reds compared to the Brewers 13

That's twice Cinci's announcer has pointed out that Milwaukee is giving Dunn a free base if he bunts down the third base line. The first time I saw a team play the shift like that, that's what jumped into my mind. It's amazing to me why nobody does it.

I'm guessing Dunn's bunting ability might not be good enough for him to consistently get it past the pitcher.

I still might give it a shot against a pitcher who I was 0-9 agaisnt lifetime.

Potentially, but lefties tend to fall off the mound to the 3B side. Dunn doesn't have very good speed and I'm guessing he bunts rarely as it is. You need a good bunt to get it past the pitcher and in fair territory. The odds of that happening compared to Dunn getting a hold of one or drawing a walk are not very good.
