Crowd making it seem like everything is out.

What is that, 8 walks?

Go CUBS !!

 

during the dusty era you'd have to go back like 2-3 years to get 8 walks in a game.

[chuckywang]

Pitching against the Cubs must be like getting a root canal.

That must not have been a Dusty team?

[Magnetic Curses]

what is fontenot doing? if helton wants to go on the other side of the bag, let him know that he's doing it at his own risk.

The past couple of games would have made Dusty cry.

[CubmanPi]

He's probably recognizing that in a collision between him and Helton, he'd lose.

[Butterscup1679666578]

lol rockies

[Brian]

uh, why didn't he just throw to 1st?

[Prior4CyYoung]

wouldn't it have been easier to just throw it to first base?

[WTFCUBS]

well that was different

[Fred Hornkohl]

Was there some sort of opportunity for Fontenot to run him over? I think Helton wins that collision every time.

[Brian]

quick inning would be real nice

[Roast]

I hope there's either a hit or a 5 or less pitch inning here.

[Guest]

This game is fun.

Yeah, if Font would have ran straight over the bag he would have creamed Helton. And by that I mean bounced off of him.
