4/26 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Reds (DeSclafani), 12:10 CDT, WGN

[Sammy Sofa]

you are using the current radar to diagnose what the weather will be 5 hours from now? good luck with that.

 

I did a zip code search of weather for where I was golfing yesterday and there was 0% precip from 6am to 2pm yesterday. It rained from 6am to noon.

 

NEVER trust/believe people/things who/that report/declare weather.

 

OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

 

Shots fired, son.

Maybe you need a new weather app.

Might be a couple hour rain delay but they should get it in, particularly with it being a day game.

@ESPNChiCubs: Btw, get ready to feel old. Addison Russell's dad is "38 or 39" according to Russell. Same age ad David Ross

 

This boggles my mind. ARod is the same age as Addison Russell's dad

 

Edit: Actually David Ross too

To be fair, it is right about 99% of the time. Of course, in San Diego, if you say it's not going to rain everyday, you will be right about 99% of the time.

I made myself wake up hungover for this game, Cobs. Win.

Probably easier for meteorologists to just learn what 0% and 100% mean, and use them very sparingly.

#Reds have a sellout crowd today at Great American Ball Park and they will do whatever it takes to get game in. #Cubs

Typical Cardinals...

 

@TheCubsWord: Cardinals pitching has a strand rate of 84.5% in conjunction with a .253 BABIP. Only a matter of time before it falls back to normal.

 

@TheCubsWord: And on the other hand, Cubs pitching has a 69.3% strand rate with a .306 BABIP. Hence why their 3.88 ERA is a lot worse than their 2.87 FIP.

[Guest]

also they score like 2 runs a game

They get some different statistically unsustainable bull [expletive] their way every single year and yet it's always with the "yep, only a matter of time till this stabilizes!" Believe it when I see it.

I'm pissed, actually. twitter.com/averhaeghe48/s…

@JArrieta34 man you must be really bored with this rain delay. Insight on how you guys handle the delay?

Now we're being entertained with video of a MC Hammer concert that was held post game at GABP. #Cubs #Reds

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Looks like the rain has just about moved through.
