8/1 Marlins (Conley) @ Cubs (Ace Hendricks) 7:05PM CST WGN

[BigSlick]

Remember when we needed our ace to go at least 7 to spare the bullpen and he did exactly that?

Yo, how lucky are we to have Kyle Freakin' Hendricks

 

This is a nice score to just look up tonight. Man, the Super Cubs are nice.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

God-mode Hendricks activated. He's finishing the year with a sub-2.00 ERA.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

OK, a Kyle Hendricks article is being written tomorrow.

[Brian]

send him back out there for the 9th

[ScrubMD]

Kyle Hendricks: so damn good.

[bcl412]

I hope he remains good just because I love his pitching style. It's fun to watch a guy just think and execute.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

remember when we used to think Jake was good?

[weis21]

I love Kyle Hendricks so much

[Cubswin11]

Leave him in, he has another extras days rest before his next start

[Derwood]

Hendricks is so effing good and not a single casual fan knows who he is

[badger]

remember when we used to think Jake was good?

 

He is good. He's just not god mode any more and that gives me the sads.

[17 Seconds]

how many hits has hendricks given up? wgn said 8, but it shows 7 online

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Bat around so Rizzo can dong his way to a cycle.

[BigSlick]

Kyle Hendricks coming into his own might be my favorite single storyline this season right now

[UMFan83]

remember when we used to think Jake was good?

 

Who?

 

Oh yeah that scrub whose only 10th in baseball in ERA

[UMFan83]

how many hits has hendricks given up? wgn said 8, but it shows 7 online

 

I was actually thinking the same exact thing. I'm guessing online is correct

[badger]

I wonder if anyone has ever gotten on base by all 6 conceivable ways? Obv it'd likely have to be an extra innings game. Edited August 2, 2016 by badger

9th inning with a 5-0 lead is a good spot to use Patton in. If for some reason he really struggles then bring in Nathan.

[USSoccer]

Tough last 3 games at the plate for Javy

[UMFan83]

Since Len and JD are talking about it:

 

My playoff rotation today is Arrieta-Lester-Hendricks-Lackey

 

Sorry Hammel take your horrible ass 3.29 ERA to the bench

[BigSlick]

Single, Double, Triple, Homer, HBP, Walk, Error, Catcher's Interference, Dropped Third Strike

 

There's at least 9 ways

I think the types of hits are all under "hit" as a way to reach base

 

Hit

Walk

HBP

Error

Dropped 3rd

Catchers Interference

Fielders Choice

 

That's 7 I can think of

[UMFan83]

Heyward don't blow this shutout like last time

 

Edit: good job!

[weis21]
