You'd think they would have figured out by now that the 5th inning on WGN radio is a disaster. I had no idea what was even going on most of the time.

It seems like every time I turn the radio on, it is during the 5th inning. What exactly does Pat do during the 5th inning?

 

He's the one who takes the huge dump in Dusty's old spot in the dugout.

[NotSoSober]

well that's a pretty good outing for garza, except for castro's bad fielding.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson, pinch hitting for Garza, hit by pitch

[ctcf]

2 QS in a row.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome singled to center field, Johnson to second

[Little Slide Rooter]

Damn, Kosuke has more singles than the Beatles.

[ctcf]

lmao Fukudome

[NotSoSober]

Not a fan of the bunt here

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barney popped out to shortstop

[Little Slide Rooter]

This would be a very good time for some redemption.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Time for Starlin to make up for those errors. I call a base-clearing double.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lindstrom in (7th) to pitch, Wigginton in (9th) 3b for Colorado

[Fred Hornkohl]

Castro grounded into a FC, 4 unassisted, Fukudome out at second, Johnson to third

[NotSoSober]

Can't believe Tulo took that himself, gotta get a run here

[TruffleShuffle]

Time for Starlin to make up for those errors. I call a base-clearing double.

 

maybe if you'd predicted a ground out he would've hit a base-clearing double.

I retire from the prediction business with a record of 0-1.

[SouthSideRyan]

Maybe if Quade would've pulled his little ass, Blake DeWitt would've hit a 3 run bomb

[ctcf]

sigh
