8/12 Brewers (Garza) @ Cubs (Hammel) - 7:05 PM CT WGN

[Brian]

Russell!

[Gilby]

Albert Almora is an outfielder, right ?

 

Yep, centerfielder. Good D, questionable bat.

 

Good stuff from Russell.

[Guest]

addy!

[Sammy Sofa]

How does Garza own us?

 

How does Hammel own the Brewers?

 

Because for most of the year he's been an effective pitcher and the Brewers have a terrible offense?

 

Oh, that kooky baseball.

[Andy]

Way to make em pay Addison!

[treebird]

it's so weird to watch the cubs have a guy come up with a man on second and two outs and just expect a hit

whut

[Guest]

i guess we finally have an actual answer

 

Why do Cubs hitters rub their helmets when they reach base?

 

It started with utility man Jonathan Herrera poking fun at teammate Starlin Castro.

 

"When Castro laughs he kind of rubs his face and head," Herrera said. "So we do it on the bases. That's where that comes from."

Why would Richard be warming up when Hammel has 62 pitches through 5.1 and has been on cruise control?

 

I think it has something to do with his hammy injury. Maybe why Maddon pulled him so early last time too

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 25-13 (.658) when the opposing starter pitches 5 innings or less.... 38-35 (.521) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!
