[Brian]

doesn't seem like the smartest move Heyward

[TruffleShuffle]

watching the video of the rizzo home run - his bat was really quick through the zone. and that's on a 94 mph fastball. i really don't think long swing is an issue.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 26-2 (.929) when they lead at the end of the 8th inning.... 4-47 (.078) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

they did a side by side comp of his swing from last year and this year on mlb network and it was a pretty dramatic difference.

Scouts had to like what they saw tonight, whether it was LaHair, Maholm, Soriano, Russell, or Marmol.

[El Duderino]

OK..... back to the NCIS marathon on USA channel.

 

 

Bye

 

have you seen every episode twice yet?

[Smack]

That was fun.

[Outshined_One]

This team has become a hell of a lot more fun to watch with Rizzo manning 1B.

[TruffleShuffle]

This team has become a hell of a lot more fun to watch with Rizzo manning 1B.

 

No kidding. He's putting together a lot of nice ABs. Single, fly out to the track in the deepest part of the park, line out to right, laser beam homer to right. Nice to see him making good contact right away, given his struggles with SD last year.

[CubmanPi]

That Baker HR landed 8 seats to the right and 1 row behind CubmanPi and his family.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I'm in the blue jersey with both arms up, just left of center. Turner Field is the 6th park our 4-yr-old has been to. He absolutely LOVED whenever the tomahawk chop broke out. We're never taking him back. Braves fans thought it was hilarious, so I couldn't resist getting him to do it on all the Cubs HRs.

Braves fan's - for the most part - are horrible from my experience. I guess the same could be true for any fanbase, but 90% I came across my last time in Atlanta were completely obnoxious. I did meet a cool old braves fan at the bar across the street before the game who give us tickets to the "755 club" (which was nice). That is, until I actually went and then realized it was just a place full of more obnoxioius braves fan who felt the need to bring up Bartman and 1908 every other minute...
