Will be interesting to see how we manage the platoon splits today.

 

Seems like lefties have slightly better numbers against Pineda, although it's not a huge difference. Not sure how Tanaka's #s are (although I'm sure the FO knows).

yankees fans are saying there's ice all over the field and seats

[jersey cubs fan]

Lots of ice here this morning, but the sun should have melted most. I guess the areas covered by shadow would be pretty nasty still though.

Cubs wearing the blues for the first time this year.

[Schwarber Fan]

Love the blues

[Guest]

I didn't even know we still had them.

[Sammy Sofa]

I wish they were dead.

so ugly

[Gilby]

I thought the new grays were the alternates for the grays that say "Chicago." And holy [expletive] that Yankee infield is laughable.

[jersey cubs fan]

that was quick

[Andy]

I thought the new grays were the alternates for the grays that say "Chicago."

Supposedly the Cubs' pitcher selects the road uniform, or at least that was the reason given for why the Cubs even bothered to bring the "Chicago" grays to Pittsburgh for the opening series (which led to Lake's snafu).

[Schwarber Fan]

Go away, Beltran

Hammel needs to not face AL East.

[Sammy Sofa]

Castro, buddy, keep those socks high.

[jersey cubs fan]

safe

[ConstableRabbit]

I think he was safe

[Guest]

Great bunt by Lake, he's safe. Real good play for Tanaka to even make it that close.

[jersey cubs fan]

He was safe live, and I believe even more safe in replay.

 

 

 

Yankees announcers know he was safe.

[ConstableRabbit]

And yeah, that was impressive by Tanaka.

[jersey cubs fan]

Real good play for Tanaka to even make it that close.

 

Definitely, I thought he was going to consider eating it at first.

[Old Style]

safe

[jersey cubs fan]

bad throw from catcher, clunky slide from Lake.

[jersey cubs fan]

Olt looks like he needs me to run to Duane Reade and pick up his eye drops.
