[Guest]

Burnett makes sure Rizzo can't hit another first pitch homer by throwing it into the dirt.

Castro is batting 2.000

On pace for 162 steals now.

I like the robot ump idea on its own merits but love it all that much more to hear kyle fret about not being able to celebrate in real time

 

What the 2nd inning of an April Cubs-Pirates game really needs is a 10-minute delay to look at a blooper down the line and sitll not be conclusive.

 

Actually, robot umps would be awesome. instant replay sucks.

 

Why would an automated system have to rely on IR for something like that?

The quest for 200%.

[Irrelevant Dude]

It may be cold, but I wish I was in Pittsburgh right now. I love that stadium.

Are you watching on TV? I was quoting Deshaies.

[Irrelevant Dude]

"Didn't hav'ta be"

 

What exactly does that mean?

[Hawk4Hall]

Soriano still hasn't learned to stay off the low pitch in the dirt.

That slide back into 2B had me holding my breath. Please do that less.

[Careless]

To the people not listening to the TV broadcast: the new guy was saying he sort of felt like if you got two hits to start the year your BA should be 2.

 

Maybe we can have him talk Rose into feeling 110%.

[Thed Hoyerstein]

Another strikeout. Yeesh.

 

More like Kubs, amirite?

[Jake]

7 Ks?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

More 1-pitch outs, please.

[Guest]

More quick outs like that would be very nice.

[Sammy Sofa]

[Guest]

Great inning for Shark.

[Guest]

jeff has settled in nicely

[Hairyducked Idiot]

That was a really nice changeup to get McCutchen. Way to save it for a key hitter.

I think that horse is out of the barn.

Deshaies is fantastic.
