5/13 - Cubs (Lester) at Cardinals (Martinez) 3:05 ABC7 & FS1

How does Edmonds get a national color job?

 

This is the Cards local broadcast. FS1 apparently is using home team broadcasts for now. He's not great, but he's light years better than Hrabosky, Rick Horton, or any of the other clowns they use.

Everybody wave back to Jon :-)

I jokingly called home run, and almost looked like a genius.

That is the first time I've seen Len get fully committed to his home run call only for it to fall short

 

Lester reacted like it was gone off the bat....which is weird because I'm not completely sure he knows that that would have felt like. I suppose he doesn't....

[UMFan83]

I'm not saying Lester is now a good hitting pitcher but he's worlds better than he was when he first signed with the Cubs

I think he hit one in spring training once but yeah pretty much

He hit it 106 mph off the bat, don't know the launch angle but I bet it had like a 60% homer rate.

He makes it look a lot harder than it actually is

[UMFan83]

That makes Candy man 2-23 in his very young MLB career. If we are showcasing him for a trade he needs to get some more hits.

[We Got The Whole 9]

7 errors for Willy

[bcl412]

Oh yay....the Lester national TV narrative.....

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I think if I were to be given 1 AB against Lester, that's about how it would look. welcome to the show, kid

[Ding Dong Johnson]

well that was just about as poorly played as possible

[Sammy Sofa]

This is the baseball equivalent of [expletive] your pants when all you thought you had to do was fart.

It seems like we have one of these innings every game

[Andy]

Why is our defense so bad

[Bryants Disco Ball]

This is the baseball equivalent of [expletive] your pants when all you thought you had to do was fart.

 

This was a great way to describe it.

[Sammy Sofa]

Ah, the dizzying highs and the terrifying lows of Lester all in a single inning.

[TMan92]

Jon needs to go into the dugout and nut punch a few people

[Bryants Disco Ball]

For the ball not being hit out of the infield - at least on outs - that was an awful half inning.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Jon needs to go into the dugout and nut punch a few people

 

Himself, too. Don't walk lead off hitters.

[weis21]

lol he can horsefeathering throw a ball in some way jerks

i think all cubs players, management, staff, and fans need to right now punch themselves in the jewels

[weis21]

thankfully mlb.tv is allowing me the len/JD feed

[weis21]

why are they doing the mother's day pink thing today instead of tomorrow? or maybe both?
