4/14 - Pirates (Cole) vs. World Champion Cubs (Hendricks) - 1:20 - WGN/MLBN

[Aaron_Kennelly]

That's a strike!

[CubinNY]

They should simalcast Len and JD during Pats inning off

[Sammys Boombox]

Oh come on. Ring him up

[Sammys Boombox]

I'm a lot more relaxed watching games after winning a title, but bad umpiring will still set me off big time

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Oh come on. Ring him up

 

I'm starting to at least consider the possibility he has some gambling debts to pay off. This is pretty weird and unacceptable.

What will we have to complain about when we finally get robot umps?

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Kyle has thrown a pitch in that exact location for a ball, like, 8 times.

[Banedon]

I don't think they'll get 9 innings in before the rain gets there.

By then Theo will be long gone and we will suck again

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Schwarbs!

[Sammys Boombox]

Ok. Now it can pour cats and dogs.

[mikeyt34]

Nice Javy. Nice Schwarbs. Keep it going boys!

[Careless]

coomer makes no mention of the fact that Schwarber's hit was actually a hit and Baez wasn't just tagging up. Pat's eyes might be sprained from rolling

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Actually it is going to pour dongs.

i don't know how this hasn't been remedied yet somehow

I can think of one thing that would remedy it.

[Derwood]

that's about as bad a swing as I've seen Rizzo take in a very long time

[BigSlick]

It's great to have big beautiful Kyle Schwarber on the team full time again

[We Got The Whole 9]

Eventually the hard hit balls will find holes.

I'd like to see the hard hit balls come. Cubs have a 317 BABIP, so we're finding holes. The thing is, we're not making hard contact (24th in the league) and are making a fuckton of soft contact (3rd most).

[BigSlick]

God I hate the Pirates

[UMFan83]

fire everyone

[UMFan83]

This is like a BABIP evening game for last year. Seems like everything in play finds a hole.

[Derwood]

left Hendricks in there one inning too long

[David]

i must've completely missed how they tied it because i thought it would be 3-2 when those 2 runs just scored.

after leadoff guy got on, there was identical singles that took the runner from 1st to 3rd via a ground ball single through the 1B-2B hole, the second one scoring the first run of the inning.
