To be fair, Bruce Chen apparently sucks more than he normally does.

Soler gets fooled, slows his swing...and still drives to the track in right field.

[illiniguy]

Soler just missed.

Pretty good first televised inning of the year.

Pretty good first televised inning of the year.

The second inning has Theo. It's gonna get sexier.

[Guest]

Baez has homered on three straight pitches.

 

I'm guessing the first pitch of his next AB will be well out of the zone.

[Guest]

That was fun!

[davell]

3 straight swings lol. Not much to say.

[davell]

Oh, and Theo: He's pretty smart.

[Quakers]

oh no ...Javy flies out...he is a flop:)

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Whatever. The [expletive]. He wants.

 

(if I were Javier Baez, the word filter would let that through)

[Careless]

ha

[illiniguy]

Good god.

[Guest]

Holy crap Baez crushed another one.

[ScrubMD]

Baez again!....daaaaaamn.

[illiniguy]

I hope somewhere at sometime Javy makes time to cure cancer. I mean if he wants to.

[davell]

COME THE [expletive] ON

[Cubs Fan Dan]

Pretty sure I am on my 5th pair of underwear in 2 days.

 

 

The cubs near future Infield potential is disgusting!

[UMFan83]

Dammit I turned on this game way too late.

He vaporized the second one.

Here's another video of Baez's walkoff yesterday

 

Looks like he did slap the hand of the 3B

Soler's boxscore won't look special, but he really seemed like he was in hitters counts in all of his at bats. Looked like he had a very good eye. Plus that foul ball he crushed would've topped Baez's HR if he could've got it fair.

He did a good job taking those two balls the other way, too. If he uses the whole field like that consistently, he'll hit for a pretty good average.

I suspect someone told Baez that his two in the Japanese game didn't count, so he just shrugged and did it again.
