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

[David]

oh that is a a glorious piece of hitting

 

so pretty

[UMFan83]

They really should have squeezed here

[Ding Dong Johnson]

you gotta catch that, Marte

[Ding Dong Johnson]

uncork a wild one

[UMFan83]

That is like the 3000th hard hit foul tonight

[Ding Dong Johnson]

horsefeathers!!!!!!!!!!!

[David]

what a horsefeathering throw

[NotSoSober]

UGH

[UMFan83]

What a waste

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Ugh... horsefeathers. Great throw.

[Omar]

That is like the 3000th hard hit foul tonight

 

I think the Cubs should play cricket, where there's no such thing as foul territory.

[BigSlick]

so i'm assuming we didn't score again

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Well, he clearly was blocking the plate.

[UMFan83]

I am going to bed this is horsefeathering ridiculous.

[Schwarber Fan]

Plate blocked. If that's a rule it should be enforced.

[Ski]

I can't believe this horsefeathers.

 

Can we get ONE. horsefeathering. BREAK.

[Buster]

If that's not blocking the plate they might as well get rid of that "rule".

[Buster]

And yeah Javy had to run his bitch ass over there.

[Ski]

Jesus horsefeathering Christ it wouldn't kill you to botch the horsefeathering throw you [expletive].

[OleMissCub]

May be a meathead pov, but I miss collisions at the plate.

[Schwarber Fan]

Marte is hands down the best defensive LF in baseball.

[Irrelevant Dude]

If that's not blocking the plate they might as well get rid of that "rule".

What was the alternative? I can't get behind ruling he blocked the plate whether it benefits the Cubs or not.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

how in the world did he make that throw

 

not only to get Baez at the plate, but it wasn't close

 

where's the statcast replay on that

[Aaron_Kennelly]

If that's not blocking the plate they might as well get rid of that "rule".

 

They called it for like two weeks and now they never do. It's as if it doesn't exist. I think it should be a rule. But there are times like that, when the ball drifts over that make it impossible to not be in front of the plate. It's just hard to enforce. And it is entirely subjective. And I don't know what to think of it, or what to do about it.

[Ski]

They must really love baseball if they're still playing even after we horsefeathering won.
