4/13 Reds (Simon) @ Cubs (Lackey) 7:05 CSN+

lol had taken a nap after work and slept a little long...saw it was 7:40, figured i'd be turning on the game in the 2nd or 3rd inning and was kinda hoping it would be 0-0 so that i wouldn't have missed anything

 

instead saw russell driving in our 3rd/4th runs (i think? - i was in a groggy haze and don't feel like rewinding) and then lackey adding on and their pitcher getting pulled in the first. lmao. amazing.

How many pitches did we see?

 

All of them. There are no more pitches.

Hahahahaha

[minnesotacubsfan]

Yaaaay Cubs are good

It's so weird knowing in April you're watching the best team your club has ever fielded in your lifetime.

[David]

where the hell was that 2-1 pitch?

This team is hilariously good at hitting.

 

I'm half positive Dexter Fowler will finish with a higher than .500 OBP

There's no need to qualify it with "bad" pitchers. We are going to do that against everyone.

When your offense is good enough that Jason Heyward is the easy out, things should go well.

[CubInOK]

This team wins 150

[David]

i'm going to go ahead and take the over on 0.5 times scoring 20 runs this season

kind of reminding me of the 08 team against bad pitchers in that you knew they would just put up 5+ every time they faced anyone bad (like the entire pirates pitching staff), except better

[CubinNY]

crappy inning.

Zobrist might get there too.

[ScrubMD]

The Cubs need to stop listening to the scouting reports that say "attack early".

[itisallpartoftheplan]

This crowd thinks every flyball is a homer.

[CubinNY]

Lackey is not good

[minnesotacubsfan]

In past years, I'd say GREAT HERE COME THE REDS but screw it, we'll just score 17 more

[Liam Neeson]

This crowd thinks every flyball is a homer.

 

I can't have this game on in the background. Everything hit in the air the crowd acts like it was hit 500ft. Watch the outfielder FFS.

[bcl412]

Zobrist pretty much looks as advertised. That's cool.

[Brian]

my guy Jon Herrera in that Jon Lester commercial!!

[CubinNY]

here we go.
