[pitchcs]

Wow, he owns DeJesus and Soriano.

[Omar]

Wow, he owns DeJesus and Soriano.

 

Yeah, it looks like Reed Johnson will start today.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Wow, he owns DeJesus and Soriano.

 

Yeah, it looks like Reed Johnson will start today.

 

Problem is, between Soriano, DeJesus, and Byrd, at least one of them will have to unless they go with Baker/DeWitt, Johnson, Mather across the OF.

[illiniguy]

Solid at bat Geo.

[ctcf]

I love the strike zone on gameday right now. Apparently the first called strike during Byrd's AB was somewhere between Ball 1 and Ball 2.

[illiniguy]

Reed Johnson 3 0 green light :banghead:

[bcl412]

Why does Reed Johnson have a 3-0 green light? This team likes to annoy me.

[imb]

ACTIVATE THE DINGER GOD

[Schwarber Fan]

[CincyCubsFan]

Great pitch, Matt.

[Magnetic Curses]

[ctcf]

Who the [expletive] is Donnie Murphy?

[bcl412]

I think I'm ready to fast forward to when we're good again.
