5/17 Pittsburgh (Burnett) @ CUBS (Arrieta) 1:20, WGN/MLBN

[Careless]

I get too happy when Bryant's throws to Rizzo don't pull him towards home.

[Guest]

Does anyone other than David feel a move to LF is inevitable for Bryant anymore? He's looked very good at 3B recently.

[Guest]

but his UZR

[Guest]

What a catch by Fowler!

He is more than adequate over there. Save left for Schwarber if catching doesn't stick or a FA/trade bat if it does.

[Guest]

Their OF is so good defensively

[Careless]

Wow, thought for a second they were going to kill each other

[Guest]

Bryant on base. Ho hum.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have outscored the opponents 4-0 in the first inning over the last 6 games.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 15-12 (.556) when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 6-3 (.667) when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Gilby]

Bryant isn't having trouble making contact lately against some really nasty pitching - Syndergaard, Harvey, Cole, etc.

[Schwarber Fan]

"Popped up" - Tim Neverett

 

Almost gets to warning track.

[Guest]

Rizzo caught that below the trademark and still hit it 375 feet, he is a strong man

[Careless]

Rizzo made an out?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Their OF is so good defensively

 

It makes you appreciate how slow and awkward Fowler is out there even when making diving catches.

[Schwarber Fan]

Burnett is a human rain delay.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 8-2 (.800) when they score in the first inning.... 13-13 (.500) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Liam Neeson]

Did the WGN TV audio just explode for anyone else?

[Guest]

LaStella just got removed from the Tenn game. gamecast simply said "Injury Delay"

[Ski]

Good grief, Castro.

[Guest]

Did the WGN TV audio just explode for anyone else?

 

Yes, I thought it was my crummy antenna signal but then it went clear on the commercials. Better now though.

[Careless]

Oh good, no rain coming yet

[Careless]

Wow, that's insanely close

[Andy]

Close but he was out and I think it would've been overturned.

[Careless]

Kang has, IIRC, 17 of his 21 hits against the Cubs and Cardinals
