8/24 Cubs (Hendricks) v. Padres (Clemens), 2:40, WGN

[UMFan83]

Did the Padres change pitchers after the 1st inning or something?

 

This dude is likely to pitch into the 6th inning for the first time in his 8 starts...not something you'd expect when he gave up 3 runs before recording his first out today.

JD Inning > Coomer Inning

[BigSlick]

Hendricks gets the lead off man, nice

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Nice, quick inning. Let's get some more runs.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Kyle needed an inning like that

[bukie]

7 pitch inning.

[Cubswin11]

Nice, would be great if we could squeeze 7 out of Hendricks

[BigSlick]

One of the problems of Coomer (and yeah I flipped him with JD in my mind for some reason), is that he doesn't change the inflection of his voice when a ball enters play or not. So its impossible to tell if a ball is hit foul, or has committed an out, or was a basehit or *anything* until Coomer finishes his stream of consciousness.

 

Even if he was bad but at least you know, spoke with a different urgency when a ball was hit into the field of play, he'd be 100 times better

When is part two coming? :)

[badger]

scalded. wonder what the mph was on that.

[Tim]

A perfect illustration about Duke's ongoing commentary about fielding hard hit balls and how good Russell is at it.

 

Schimpf, apparently, is not.

101

[bukie]

Still hitting the ball hard.

[BigSlick]

it would be cool, i would offer, to score runs in this inning

[Cubswin11]

Zobrist is really hitting the ball hard lately

[Cubswin11]

Show us your dong, Georgie

[bukie]

Damn, good pitch to hit, Soler got significantly under it.

[Ski]

Damnit, soler.

One of the problems? That is THE single biggest problem he has. If he didn't have that issue he'd still be subpar but wouldn't be a constant point of discussion.

[UMFan83]

That's awesome but sucks Addy isn't going to get any RBIs for that.

 

edit: NM he gets 1 RBI duh
