Kevin Goldstein ‏@Kevin_Goldstein

Draft break: Time to go watch actual baseball with Peoria at Kane County. First in-person look at Javier Baez.

[ctcf]

Rizzo is back! Phew.

[Have a seat, Neifi]

Kevin Goldstein ‏@Kevin_Goldstein

Javier Baez rips a single in the first. Crazy bat speed.

[ctcf]

For the I-Cubs, BJax is leading off with Rizzo batting 4th and Vitters 5th.

[ctcf]

Peoria Chiefs ‏@peoriachiefs

Homer #1 in the career of Javier Baez!!! A 3 run BOMB to left center and the Chiefs lead 7-0. Welcome to the Chicago area Javier!

Kevin Goldstein ‏@Kevin_Goldstein

Javier Baez crushes a home run to center. Just crushed. Sold.

Sweet ass sweet.

Javier Baez crushes a home run to center. Just crushed. Sold.

 

Now that is what I like to hear.

And just to add to the Goldstein-initiated lovefest:

 

Kevin Goldstein ‏@Kevin_Goldstein

Baez home run cleared the Pepsi sign. As long a shot as I've seen in this park since Jason Stokes played here.

[El Duderino]

Brett Jackson led off the game with his 8th triple. Not a lefty this time.

 

.842 OPS.

You could kick it with Ronnie Woo Woo (per Kevin Goldstein, he's there).
