5/4 Cubs (Wood) @ Cardinals (Martinez) 7:10PM ESPN/CSN

[mul21]

Maddon should not have let Wood go out there to start the inning.

 

Wood had retired something like 12 of 13 hitters, was in the 80s for pitch count, and 2 of the first 3 hitters were left handed. He did exactly what he should have there.

 

Yeah, there was nothing wrong with the decision. And only one of those balls was even hit very hard.

Strong disagreement.

i know he's a professional baseballer and has this worked out, but i don't understand how motte can jump and throw the ball to first as hard as he can without putting 1/10 in the crowd

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

It was pretty clear Wood we done before this inning started. Leaving him in served no purpose. They needed a fresh arm.

[mul21]

Man, if our pitchers ever get a BABIP correction, they won't allow a run for like a week.

[Gilby]

Meh, he induced a weak grounder.

[Schwarber Fan]

Has Jon Jay ever made an out after the 5th inning?

Rosscup, Strop, Rondon.

[Gilby]

Strop has to pitch the 7th if he gets out of this, right?
