4/25 World Champs (Hendricks) @ Pirates (Cole) 6:05pm WGN

I don't agree with the implication that every strike is worthy of being swung at

Neither do I, as well as I don't agree with the idea that taking pitches for the sake of taking pitches is the right play if those pitches are in a hittable zone.

Nice work, Kyle. Hopefully this is some progress on a night he clearly wasn't right, he fought through and figured it out.

 

I think he might be coming out for the 7th.

[BigSlick]

I hope our bullpen is still dealing because I think we're gonna need this run to stand up

Ah, nevermind. I still think Kyle could have gone one more but Joe probably wanted him to leave on a high note.

Uehara relieving Hendricks seems like it has a potential to be very bad, repertoire-wise

[BigSlick]

Hmmm... that was nearly the opposite of what we want

I'd rather open with Carl then Koji. However, the Pirates aren't good at hitting and the ball isn't carrying.

unless the run doesn't score and Cole gets yanked for a PH

Agree, think CJ, Strop or Rondon are somewhat better options "to give a different look."

[Brian]

come on, finish it out

[mikeyt34]

Nice Koji. 1 more.

[We Got The Whole 9]

That double was a fluky piece of contact, finish them Koji!

JD basically pulled a Steve Stone that AB, all but guaranteeing a strikeout on offspeed out of the zone.

[Brian]

nice!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

got through the 7th unscathed and knocked Cole out of the game

 

do work, koji

[mikeyt34]

Yea Cole is out!

[17 Seconds]

that worked out well

[CubinNY]

They can bludgeon to death or win a pitchers duel

They can bludgeon to death or win a pitchers duel

And certainly in comeback fashion, if needed

it's going to be Rondon in the 8th though (well he's the guy warming)

[17 Seconds]

i keep forgetting about rondon

[We Got The Whole 9]

Jay is perfect for our team

pitcher, catcher and fans all angry at the umpire for calling balls on pitches that are out of the strike zone.
