[Fred Hornkohl]

Actually, it was one guy twice.

[Guest]

son of a bitch

[Careless]

seriously?

[philosophizer75]

Sigh, that was literally the least intentional looking one of them all

[ctcf]

Crap

[Irrelevant Dude]

That was barely even off the plate. BS.

[BigSlick]

Good Christ stop hitting people, if only because I don't want cubs being hit in retaliation

[Ski]

Really? That's a [expletive] ejection.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

So this does have to be on purpose, right? Three in a game?

[NotSoSober]

yea, he's trying ro hit him there. stupid [expletive] umps

[ctcf]

Give them hell, Joe

[Guest]

if the rule is Rondon has to go once warnings are issued, whatever. But if they have any judgement in determining intent, that is a dumb decision.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-1 (.000) when they hit 3 or more opposing batters.... 86-60 (.589) when they don't

[Isaac Vines]

BS ejection...that was not intentional

[Careless]

There's no rule, that's just a judgment call

[Aaron_Kennelly]

[expletive] it. Get a double play ball and hit the next batter, too.

Only Rodney's seemed like it might have been intentional.

Even Rodney's pitch was coming back toward the plate. It just didn't move enough.

I'm the first in line to rip on umpires but that was handled ok in my book. 3rd batter hit after yesterday's shenanigans even though it wasn't on purpose I get it. An ump show would've been ripping the mask off and theatrically throwing him out and the cards would've got themselves a case of the redass if that happened.
