And to say he made Nick Hundley look silly would give disproportionate value to all other uses of the word silly.

 

everyone makes nick hundley look silly

LaHair helping out the pitcher by swinging at a garbage pitch, on a day where the strike zone is about 6 inches square.

[bukie]

Soriano has walked twice and Castro has walked once, the zone is very small.

[jersey cubs fan]

12 walks today? And Marmol has only faced 5 guys, that's kind of crazy.

[Schwarber Fan]

I hate watching lefties try to hit lefties

[bukie]

Cubs' pen today: 3.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K

[bukie]

Wonder if they'll try to send Campana...

[bukie]

Yep, stole second on a pitchout from Cashner.

[bukie]

And third, because why not?

[Sammy Sofa]

BE COOL, STARLIN.

[Careless]

Most pitches Castro has taken in a game all season?

[bukie]

If I'm the Padres, I throw Castro nothing resembling a hittable pitch and take my chances with either Starlin getting himself out or let Mather beat them.

[Sammy Sofa]

MOTHER [expletive] YES.

[Careless]

Dont ever slide like that again

I was just about to post the exact same thing.

[Sammy Sofa]

Yeah, I did some kind of whoop/cry of terror as that all went down.

[Schwarber Fan]

Thrilled that the game is tied but more encouragement for sliding into first is bad

[ConstableRabbit]

How did that happen? Gamecast just said "infield single"

chopped to third, castro safe after a not-quite perfectly handled play and a stupid head first slide.

Where is that guy with his 10 stop watch trials telling us that diving into first is faster and the only reason runners don't do it is they don't want a face full of track?

[sneakypower]

why is it so easy to love you, Starlin?

[bukie]

Mather fails in his attempt to be out in every way possible (Strikeout, Flyout, Lineout, Pop out...twice).

Because if you don't he'll force you to.
