05/27 Phillies (Morgan) @ CUBS (Lester) 1:20 CDT, CSN

[Schwarber Fan]

Have the people that approved of Coomer doing the play by play for the 5th inning actually listened to it?

 

Ron Santo used to do the same, (or there was some guest announcer that did for 1 inning while Pat went on break?) and they just continued the tradition

 

"tradition"

 

I don't believe Santo ever did it. It was always the update guy, several of whom have gone on to full time play-by-play gigs. It makes 0 sense why they use Coomer.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

what's gramps fwar up to?

 

1.2, he just passed Rizzo

I'm pretty sure Hughes has the 5th inning off contractually, the problem is not having an actual PBP person do it like they have in the past, where someone like the updates guy is an aspiring PBP guy(for the life of me I can't remember any of the names) and does it.

dongggg partyyyyyy

[UMFan83]

YOU GET A DONG AND YOU GET A DONG. EVERYONE GETS DONGS!

[Sammy Sofa]

The dongs are in bloom.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

And of course that was the quietest the crowd has been on a fly ball all year.

[Cubbie Swagger]

Who hits that pitch out of the park? Honestly.

[Rex Buckingham]

Andy Masur used to do the 5th, right?

 

and lol at Coomer not being sure a ball that ends up on Waveland getting out

[badger]

I wanna see KB's dong.

 

 

:hello:

[Ski]

Bryant is so horsefeathering good.

[BigSlick]

[UMFan83]

We don't feed the ball hawks enough, need to keep this up before they kill each other.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I remember he use to take a full inning off, like just completely remove his headset and not say anything. Now he is still there but is just letting Coomer do PBP.

[wvcbxl]

I like dongs :-D

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 7-0 (1.000) when they hit at least 3 HRs.... 24-14 (.632) when they don't

CUBS are 23-0 (1.000) when they score 6 runs or more.... 8-14 (.364) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[CubInOK]

Dongs for Waveland.

[BigSlick]

Is Kris Bryant gonna hit 40 home runs this year?

 

Yes/Absolutely/Of course, Who Are you Kidding?/No, I am a coward

As he almost always is.

You forgot this one...

 

There will be dongs today. That ball had no business carrying to the track.

 

So I was right before I was wrong.

[badger]

it felt different than his normal call. Or I had a reaction to it unlike I normally do. Edited May 27, 2016 by badger
