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

[UMFan83]

Tarp is coming off...

[Omar]

What does the radar look like?

 

this rain should be very short

 

 

I work 15 miles west of the city and it poured for about 15 minutes and now the sun is coming out.

 

I, too, work 15 miles west and can confirm.

[UMFan83]

Oh, is that you over there? *waves*

[UMFan83]

Cubs saying 4:30 start time

[BigSlick]

Will this mean poor Strop will be done for the day after throwing one pitch?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

So is there a rule that if there is a rain delay and a pitcher is throwing to his first guy, that he is allowed to be taken out? Obviously there is.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Alright, we get some more chances at donging.

[UMFan83]

Come back rain!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Nice framing magic, Rossy.

[davell]

Eh, that could've been much worse.

[BigSlick]

Is there some minimum amount of time a delay has to go or something? I swear this game could have resumed 30 minutes ago

[Cubswin11]

Is there some minimum amount of time a delay has to go or something? I swear this game could have resumed 30 minutes ago

No. It was pouring out for a while and it takes time to get the field back in shape and players/pitchers warmed back up.

grandpa rossy needed his late afternoon nap, Sammy Sofa dinner, etc.

[Ski]

I can't believe we get to watch Bryant play for us for the next 5.70 years minimum.

[UMFan83]

That sucks I think he's out

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 17-6 (.739) when they get hit by a pitch.... 14-8 (.636) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-5 (.688) when they steal a base.... 20-9 (.690) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

Regular players all take a walk like this: "doo-doo-doo-doo-doo!"

 

But Kris Bryant takes a walk like this:

 

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Um, ok. I'll take it.

[Ski]

I think his pants help contact with the bag.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

there was probably an instant where he was off the bag with the tag applied, but I didn't see a camera angle that showed both Bryant definitively off the base and Hernandez tagging him

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Are you horsefeathering serious?

[UMFan83]

This has gotta stop with Soler. Wtf kind of zone are they giving him

[Irrelevant Dude]

Why do all umpires hate Soler?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I feel really bad for Jorge there. That was really not good.
