8/7 Giants (Vogelsong) @ Cubs (Lester) - 3:05 pm CT WGN

[KatJ]

Has Jon Lester had any hits, or even a walk, as a batter yet?

[DiamondMind]

Why do they alternate announcers anyway? So weird.

He got a hit a while back. Don't think he has walked.

[sontensei]

Russell has been putting the head of the bat on the ball like a CHAMP since the break. He's gonna be so damn good

If he becomes the kind of hitter he can be that trade is going to go down as one of the all-time steals.

 

not to mention if McKinney becomes a decent MLB'er or is a key piece in a trade for a TOR pitcher!

The Giants took a cool stadium in AT&T Park and made it feel like a [expletive] basketball game. These clowns have no right to complain about music being too loud.

 

what'd they do

[JonJayCutler]

They're being extremely petty. I've never heard Len talk like this.

 

I've literally never heard Len talk [expletive] about anyone ever.

[DiamondMind]

Yea I wasnt being sarcastic. I have never ever, not even once, heard Len talk like these guys are.

[KatJ]

And now they're talking about Bartman.

 

Well, SF people are a lot like people from NYC: they think everything outside the city doesn't matter. Merely acknowledging the existence of something noteworthy outside their region Is a rarity.

Pirates do it also.

[Guest]

the cubs used to do it

 

usually it's when they have old guys who don't want to travel much or at all

[DiamondMind]

"Lester isn't fooling anybody"

 

Are these guys serious!?

[BrockLanders]

lol, Schwarber already looks better than Soler out there.

[Guest]

when you guys were bitching about matt duffy, i had assumed he homered or something, but it's still 1-1 and there's nobody on (at least on my stream)

 

wtf happened

The atmosphere is just very obnoxious between innings and doesn't match the aesthetic of the park. Loud music, mascot running around on the dugout, in game reporter, etc. To hear that they were complaining about our video board or music volume was funny to me in light of this.

[BigSlick]

Amazingly, Angel Pagan has been worse than Starlin Castro, and by far, the worst player in the league:

lots of people are going to be hating on the cubs now that we're good. it's going to be delicious.

[DiamondMind]

They were specifically complaining that the speakers are pointed towards the field. As if we should point them straight up or something.

Well, Billy himself told Theo, "Congrats, you just got Barry Larkin."

[DiamondMind]

KyLF Schwarber

[UMFan83]

Well that was a fun 2 weeks when you were good Dexter

[Thed Hoyerstein]

KyLF Schwarber

 

adam jacobi

[BigSlick]

Gameday says Schwarber basically watched 3 strikes go more or less down the middle? huh.

[Schwarber Fan]

This is like that Weds night game vs the Cards where they kept taking meatballs down Broadway.

 

Edit: it was a Monday night. Lester vs Lackey
