8/2 Cubs (Richard) @ Brewers (Lohse) 1:10, ABC

[KaiserCesar]

I'd like to see Villanueva. He's had a good year, been good of late and adds a little power. I don't see much value in Sczcur if Fowler is healthy and Denorfia can fake it in center in a pinch.

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm pulling for Olt.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm pulling for Olt.

 

If you call up Olt today, you can't option him again without sending him through waivers because of service time or something like that. I don't care about that, but I can see the front office caring about it. Can't put the guy on the team because you can't play roster games with him.

So is this game not on in the Peoria area? The stupid Sox are on the channel that cuts in to ABC7 usually.

[Guest]

I missed a pitch too, so I was even more galled when I saw that was the 3-1 call and not 3-0.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 39-10 (.796) when they score first in the game.... 17-37 (.315) when they don't

CUBS are 18-7 (.720) when they score in the first inning.... 38-40 (.487) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Point for the two-strike slap hitting.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Through 1 inning the CUBS are seeing 4.67 P/PA.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[DiamondMind]

Its really stupid that in 2015 I have to search reddit to find a stream link because the games not on TV

[Derwood]

Whoever decided that the shin high pitch is a strike must have it out for the Cubs

[DiamondMind]

Whoever decided that the shin high pitch is a strike must have it out for the Cubs

 

kb agrees

[Outshined_One]

Whoever decided that the shin high pitch is a strike must have it out for the Cubs

 

Remember when face high fastballs were a thing and Cubs pitchers feasted off of them?

[DiamondMind]

PM me for a stream link if you're also in central illinois

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 47-28 (.627) when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 9-19 (.321) when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

It's not all of central Illinois. The game is on WCIX here in Springfield area.

[ctcf]

Clayton Richard just looks like a strong person.

[DiamondMind]

So Springfield has more Cubs fans and Peoria has more Sox fans? Why do we get the stupid White Sox? I dont...I dont understand.
