They must have some big deal with MLB, because they make announcements for this prior to every cubs home game over the PA system.

Kos-K

[Roast]

Damnit Kosuke. I miss when you got lots of hits and didnt swing at bad pitches.

[UMFan83]

Kosuke is not a 5 hitter.

[PrimeTime]

Well we got him to throw 29 pitches

[TMan92]

This sure looks familiar.

[UMFan83]

I have no idea why a guy with a .395 SLG is hitting 5th in the order. It just doesn't make sense. Just like it makes no sense to face a RHP and have him be your only lefty. (he actually has a better BA vs. LHP)

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez flied out to right field

[kujay]

Oh, but Kosuke just made a great routine catch out in RF!

[Roast]

Ok, so where the hell was that?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Gonzalez grounded out to short, 6-3

[Roast]

What the hell, blue.

So, every time i complain about the ump not making a call on the edge of the plate, the player at bat grounds to short on the next pitch. I'll keep this in mind.
