[Schwarber Fan]

Has anyone in the media challenged Maddon about continuing to bat Castro cleanup??

[Sammy Sofa]

Yes. Patrick Mooney challenged him to a duel.

[Gilby]

He's been asked. Castro makes a lot more contact than Soler and splits up the lefties.

[Schwarber Fan]

My money would be on Joe.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fowler, cf

Bryant, 3b

Rizzo, 1b

Castro, ss

Montero, c

Soler, rf

Coghlan, lf

Hudler talking about Gordon stealing home... With 2 strikes and 2 outs...

Hudler talking about Gordon stealing home... With 2 strikes and 2 outs...

 

Not sure if the KC broadcast showed it, but Gordon got a running lead earlier in the at bat, which is why Wada stepped off. Not at all likely, but can at least see why it was on the mind.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS seeing 2.8 P/PA so far.

They did and that's why he was talking about it, but then he was acting like Gordon may still do it when there were 2 strikes.

Hey, Mother Nature... tomorrow is June. We want dongs.
