Heyward comes through!

[Ding Dong Johnson]

[Ding Dong Johnson]

What was that exchange between Cueto and Willson all about?

[BigSlick]

Lackey amazes me because I have rarely seen a pitcher just throw pitches down the middle of the plate time after time without fear and not get tattooed regularly

 

Mad respect to that guy

[USSoccer]

Is Lil' Sebastian on a pitch count today?

[Sammy Sofa]

this has nothing to do with the game, just saw it and thought it was awesome

I feel like we just got a really, really uncomfortable glimpse into Ding Dong Johnson's life.

80-90 per Maddon

[BigSlick]

lol well at least we've kept their hits lower than their runs

[UMFan83]

Seems like we've given up a few runs lately due to the opponent being very aggressive. Guess that's one way to potentially overcome historically low BABIP staff

[UMFan83]

Why isn't Soler playing instead of Coghlan? Trying to lower the chance he is injured?

Hunter Pence moves like a small child's art project that came to life

Raisin just got retweeted by Len and I'm not sure if Len knows it was a joke

[UMFan83]

Completely useless stats that only I would find and care about but still post to NSBB for mocking anyways:

 

The Cubs are 1-6 in their last 7 weekend games coming into today.

Oh and 17-1 on M-F during that stretch

that is also when I have most of my worst hangovers

[Omar]

Cueto looks like Malcolm James Warner (Theo from the Cosby Show) when he had dreadlocks.

[davell]

Joe Smith has looked like a competent, maybe even good, pitcher, since coming back.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

This must be what Friday felt like for the Giants

[UMFan83]

Giants will be a tough out if Cueto and Bumgarner pitch 3 of 5 games. Too bad we have Jake Jon and Kyle pitching 4 times

[Hunter]

Whaaaaa? Maddon actually took Wood out before an inning was over with no one on?

[BigSlick]

it would be nice to win this game, but not at all necessary

 

but it would be nice

[BigSlick]

In my own purely facile way, I keep rooting for Dex and Zobrist to keep their OPS above .800 by the end of the season for my own personal benchmark - I hope they can keep it that way
