4/18 Padres (Stauffer) @ Cubs (Z!) 7:05 p.m., WCIU

Is anyone warming up for the Cubs? If they don't win it in the bottom of the 9th is Quade sticking with Marmol?

[Guest]

Thanks a lot wind.

 

Pena's ball is gone with no wind.

[Cubswin11]

GD Wind :banghead:

Poor Pena.

[Soul]

The Padres play-by-play guy could no longer contain himself, and just started laughing at the home run balls we've hit that died before even getting close to going out.

[Cubswin11]

Poor Pena.

He hit two tonight that are likely HR with no wind, or even if the wind is blowing in not quite as hard.

[Schwarber Fan]

At least he's driving it now

So.... which team runs out of good pitchers first ??

I don't know, but I'm worried about Carlos pulling a groin with that kind of crazy follow through.

fun fact of the day, the cubs have the worst babip against in baseball, while the cubs' offense has the third-highest babip in baseball.

 

i guess this game will help bring those stats back toward the mean a bit.

Yesterday the Cubs and Rockies played 8 1/2 innings (the Rockies didn't bat in the ninth) in 3:42.

 

Today, the Cubs and Padres got through nine innings in 2:10.

[Soul]

Wait a minute. What the hell?

 

Dick Enberg is doing play-by-play for the Padres?

Yes, he is their TV announcer.

[Cubswin11]

Please score this inning

[Guest]

Come on, Cubs.

 

End this thing before the entire bullpen has to be used.

Yes, he is their TV announcer.

 

Just really random and strange to me.

He usually does home games only. Weird indeed.

With the forecast for the series, I bet he wishes he would have stayed home this time :-)

Now would be a good time to NOT swing at the crappy low-and-away slider, Geo.

[Yeti]
