Man, Heyward really rolls over a lot of balls instead of going up to middle or other way with them.

[Sammys Boombox]

Strike 3 to Aybar was pretty.

 

Heyward's glove is pretty.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

That defense...

[Sammy Sofa]

Snazzy.

[BigSlick]

Man, Heyward really rolls over a lot of balls instead of going up to middle or other way with them.

Was gonna post this exact thing but was gonna check to see if his groundball rate is any worse than usual. It's slightly lower than it usually is and his line drive rate is higher than it usually is but his hard hit % (defined by Fangraphs) is waaaaay down (to the surprise of no one)

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 6-0 (1.000) when they allow fewer than 2 walks.... 11-5 (.688) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Good play by Hayward out there. Soler probably doesn't make that catch.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have outscored the opponents 20-8 in the 4th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

Good play by Hayward out there. Soler probably doesn't make that catch.

Not only would he not make that catch if he attempted it he'd almost certainly misplay the ball and give up extra bases

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Stop sucking, bats.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

There we go.

[Sammy Sofa]

Good play by Hayward out there. Soler probably doesn't make that catch.

Not only would he not make that catch if he attempted it he'd almost certainly misplay the ball and give up extra bases

 

I don't think we really need to clarify the things Soler does poorly at this point, because the sad answer is "everything."

 

Except for being beautiful.

[BigSlick]

Alright flipper boy give me a gapper

[Fred Hornkohl]

P/PA through 4 inning(s)....

 

CUBS: 4.60

Braves 3.85

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

Ugh

[bcl412]

Lackey's Cardinal was showing

[Fred Hornkohl]

oh, horsefeathers !

[Ding Dong Johnson]

poo

[bcl412]

That was a really good throw

[UMFan83]

Stupid fluke jammed double

[BigSlick]

heyward tried reeeeeeal hard to get that runner there lol

 

Annoying how quickly they get a run here after Lackey had been making them look like fools

 

I need a pounding for a moral victory
