5/5 Dusty Baker's Nats (Ross) @ Cubs (Hendricks) 7:05 PM CDT CSN

[BigbadB]

Reds bullpen record continues to tomorrow.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

People are obsessed with Heyward's dong, but this really would be a great spot for this Hayride you all want to take.

[Hunter]

does anyone remember what season the go cubs go thing started? i think it was sometime between the 03-04 teams and the lou teams.

 

i know back in the 90s they used to play "walkin on sunshine" or "get down tonight" after the last out of wins

 

I want to say it was later like 2008 or 2009. I was at the Cincinnati game that we clinched the division. Fans stayed after the game waiting for the Brewers to lose for the clinch. We were singing it then and I remember it being a relatively new thing.

 

I wanna so '07. I was at the game where they took the percentage points lead over the Brewers in '07 and they played it.

 

Yeah I think the game I was at was 08.

[BigbadB]

We broke the Reds pitching staff forever.

it was definitely there for 08. and i'm almost 50/50 on whether it was around in 07, but i'm leaning toward yes.

Solis hasn't given up a hit to a lefty this year. Time for Heyward to change that

[CaliforniaRaisin]

The 2011 first round was pretty solid:

 

Gerrit Cole

Trevor Bauer

Anthony Rendon

Francisco Lindor

Javier Baez

George Springer

Jose Fernandez

Sonny Gray

Kolten Wong

Joe Ross

Joe Panik

Jackie Bradley Jr

Trevor Story

 

Plus prospects like Robert Stephenson, Michael Fulmer, Joe Musgrove and Blake Snell.

[David]

[fallacy]

Anytime you can't stop being useless with the bat Heyward, that would be nice

[fallacy]

[UMFan83]

Bad Stropy bad!

[Schwarber Fan]

God, Bob Carpenter calls the game he thinks is happening over what is actually happening.

 

Espinosa was "way behind in the count when he got hit"

 

...On a 2-2

[Tryptamine]

He's not good, just chuck it down the middle and make him earn it.

[NotSoSober]

[UMFan83]

Might have to face Harper with 2+ in this inning

[gobigred]
