9/1 Reds (DeScalfani) @ Cubs (Haren) 7:05, WGN

[Little Slide Rooter]

Just noticed that awful white middle infielder is in the game and Russell is no longer. Reason?

[Ski]

Man Rizzo going cold really sucks

I would rather have our big boppers alternate between excellent and average than between red hot and frigid.

[Schwarber Fan]

In play, run(s)

 

how long as it been since it would say "run scoring play"?

 

At least 6 years.

Has it ever said that? I can remember it saying In play, run(s) in like 2004

WHAT JUST HAPPENED, SOMEBODY TELL ME ABOUT RUNS.

bryant hit a soft top spin liner to left and it looked like the LF would have a great shot to throw out Schwarber at home. But he bobbled it and Schwarbs made it without a throw.

 

Sweeeeeet.

[Careless]

WHAT JUST HAPPENED, SOMEBODY TELL ME ABOUT RUNS.

Soft liner over third, LF dropped the ball trying to throw Schwarber out at home (probably would have gotten him with a good throw)

[UMFan83]

Pitcher thought ball 1 was strike 2

[BigSlick]

Kris Bryant owns

[Irrelevant Dude]

Pitcher thought ball 1 was strike 2

It was.

[TruffleShuffle]

He's gonna be ROY.

 

wow bold prediction there. 2nd in home runs among rookies, 1st in runs, 1st in rbi, 3rd in stolen bases, 1st in obp, 2nd in wOBA, easily 1st in WAR.

[ARCubsFan]

[Sammys Boombox]

I remember "In play, run(s)" at my parents' last house which means at least 2005.

[weis21]

YESSSSSS

[Gilby]

Anyone who says someone other than Bryant will end up being the best of the Cubs' rookies is trying too hard to sound different and cool.

 

And yay Miggy!

Honestly even if he wasn't the best rookie, which he is, he'd win it by name alone as long as he was in the race

[Guest]

c'mon, Javy!

[Little Slide Rooter]

Miggy did not appreciate the premature jubilation on the part of the pitcher.

[Schwarber Fan]

Yeah, Miggy!

[Guest]

eventually i'll learn to resist updating this thread while watching on mlb.tv

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Does this mean we don't have to go to Rodney or Cahill in the 7th?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Javy non-K please.

No one knows, but the hope is that it's just Joe being silly and not that he injured himself.
