8/29 Pirates (Brault)<-WHO? @ Cubs (Jake), 7:05 PM, CSN

[Aaron_Kennelly]

RTR?

 

What's that now?

 

Rich Tom Ricketts?

[Schwarber Fan]

That's a hit in every game since the name change!

[TruffleShuffle]

strike one wasn't a strike, but probably should have swung at one of those other two that were in the same location.

[Schwarber Fan]

Swing the damn bat, Willson.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Willson just watched 3 of the exact same pitch. not a great way to go from 3-0 to striking out

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I thought that was crushed off the bat.

[UMFan83]

Come on Willy he threw almost the exact same pitch 5 times in a row and you already lost 2 borderline calls. Gotta swing at that one

[BigSlick]

Heyward now has what, an 8 game hitting streak?

[USSoccer]

I thought that was crushed off the bat.

 

Me too. I was extremely confused for a second when the camera didn't immediately pan to the scoreboard

[squally1313]

Heyward now has what, an 8 game hitting streak?

 

Jason Heyward, last 7 games (no idea if this includes tonight): .348/.348/.565.

[TruffleShuffle]

i demand dongs!

[Tim]

tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of Jake's first no-hitter, so tonight's the last shot at 3 in a calendar year.

The dream is still alive.

My Dad, a Cardinal fan, is sitting in the bleachers and just texted me in an attempt to 'jinx' the no-hitter.

 

After three innings.

 

The fear that Jake (and the rest of this team) puts into the minds of opposing fans will never cease to be amusing.

[BigSlick]

ok its time to put the finishing blow on Brault's outing now

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Horrible.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

thanks, blue. dick.

[BigSlick]

Gameday has that way outside

[Ding Dong Johnson]

damn wtp!

[UMFan83]

I've seen Jake have that same location called a ball at least twice (Zobrist K)

[Careless]

what the hell, did that ball kill a flock of seagulls on its path?

[USSoccer]

Okay how did that stay in?

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Eh... I thought it was a Ding Dong Johnson. But I'll take it.

[Schwarber Fan]

How does that ball not land on Waveland?

[BigSlick]

Super Soler. Nice.

[Tim]

I'm stunned that stayed in.
