4/21 Cubs (Wood) @ Pirates (Liriano) 6:05 WGN

[Cubswin11]

question for those watching closely....

 

When welington went back on that popup near the net behind home plate, there was a fan that basically threw his body against the net to move it towards the field. If the fan doesn't directly impact Welington, can it still be fan interference?

Good question, yes? Especially if the ball remains in the field of play (on the field side of the netting/wall).

[Tryptamine]

Well, that was a bit anti-climactic

 

Yeah, on 2-0 you'd hope for better contact than that.

[Guest]

Really wish that Wood had a semi-magical ability to prevent HR on fly balls.

[Guest]

that one I believe carried out that far

Or if he manages to move the netting enough to have the ball fall on the other side

put in jaxon

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-2 (.000) when the opponent hits at least 2 HRs.... 7-3 (.700) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I don't like these dongs.

Travis Wood with the a 20 mph wind blowing out? We shouldn't be too surprised.

[Tryptamine]

Last start Wood was spotting everything and right now the only thing he can half way spot is his fastball.

We'll be seeing some Jackson/Germen tonight...

Wood is a schizophrenic apparently

[Guest]

Anyone notice that Muskat tweeted that Maddon said Baez is "close rejoining the big league club"? Then actually gives the following quote: "From our perspective, we want him to take as much time as necessary."

 

Unless there was more to the quote than she put there, I have no idea how those thoughts relate.

So is Joe West apparently.

[DiamondMind]

Stop it Travis. Keep the ball down.

[Tryptamine]

put in jaxon

 

I hope he's ready to eat about 4 innings because I'm not sure Wood goes more than 3 at this rate.

[kujay]

That was a fuckin strike to Soler!

[Guest]

Joe West everybody

[DiamondMind]

That was a [expletive] strike to Soler!

[DiamondMind]

There we go Wood - settle down brah, our offense has your back tonight.

[Guest]

Top of the order? Time for runs.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Hope Jacob Turner can come back & displace Wood in the rotation.
