5/9 Snakes (Haren) vs Cubs (Lilly) 1:20PM WGN TV/Radio

You know what they say about opinions, though.

 

Yours is wrong and mine is right? :)

Drew flies to the track in right. 1 down.

 

No fastballs to Young, please.

[inari]

Oh man, I was just going to type that a Stephen Drew home run would be predictable. And I thought it just happened.

[jersey cubs fan]

I should have said he is out if he intentionally interferes with a thrown ball.

 

Just realized I didn't make that clear.

Unless he's Chase Utley.

[Brian]

sit down young

[Outshined_One]

Didn't throw a single fastball in that AB. Nice.

[erik316wttn]

Young K's on the change. 2 down.

 

8 k's on the game for Lilly.

[E.J.]

Looks like the Cubs might have finally learned their lesson against CY.

3 strikes all off speed pitches...hmmm, Chris Young a fastball hitter? Who knew?

[Banedon]

Hilarious. 2 AB's, no fastballs, 2 outs for CY. Why EVER throw him a FB?

[Brian]

I love Lilly's reaction

[bcruise]

He's looking nothing but FB, and didn't see one the whole atbat. Well done, Ted.

[E.J.]

Haha. "The man hug."

Don't say that. One of our guys will probably try to blow a FB by him trying to be cute, and it'll end up on Waveland.

[wekse]

and young k's again on nothing but offspeed pitches.

[erik316wttn]

Jackson walks.

That never gets old.

 

It gets better every time I see it. I can almost enjoy it at this point.

 

I have gotten over it and now chuckle when I watch this.

Until he proves that he can hit ANYTHING else, it's pretty crazy to throw him a FB anywhere near the zone. I might try and throw some really high fastballs out of the zone when I'm ahead in the count, but that would be it.

Our two flamethrowing bullpen guys worry me in that potential situation. Especially if the game is still close.

[inari]

Argh. This lineup is so scary.

[Brian]

94 mph ??

[weis21]

94? Wow

[Outshined_One]

I'm hoping Howry sits during this series. This lineup strikes me as the type that would crush him.

 

94 on Lilly's FB. Nice.

[inari]

94? Seriously?
