6/4 Cubs (Hendricks) vs St. Louis (Wacha) 6:30 ESPN

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Edwards is so good! Him and Davis at the back end of the pen is so money.

[UMFan83]

Well our entire rotation has ERAs north of 3.90 but at least our pen is pretty horsefeathering solid

What the horsefeathers is this baserunning tonight

 

I'm not sure Heyward isn't a genius right there. He may have did that to make sure Rizzo scored. Baited everyone.

 

That's exactly what it looked like to me.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

If Carl could have stayed healthy, we'd have had one of our future starters already. That said, he's going to be our closer. That's important, too.

Same. Heyward is too smart of a baserunner to accidently get caught up there. He knows that Fowler has a SHO at Rizzo there. If Heyward gets the throw cut off then the run scores. If he doesn't, Rizzo scores maybe 80% of the time and he's at 3rd

nah, he gambled on a throw to the plate when he should have held to make sure the throw was going home. EX-SEXY DEXY was going to 3rd. not a horrible baserunning move, but it certainly wasn't genius

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

No Davis? Ugg

[Sammy Sofa]

Schwarber 3-walk games are much more enjoyable than Schwarber 3-strikeout games.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

If Davis is unavailable, I'd prefer sending CEJ back out there to start the 9th.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Come on Ian, hit a rocket off his face and into the bleachers

You don't need to try and kill Cardinals. They do that themselves.

I don't know why he's not available. I know one of his outings was a lot of pitches but before the last 2

games wasn't he off for like 7 days

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Not knowing whether a guy had been announced or not earlier in the game? It's the attention to detail I love best about these ESPN broadcasts.

[Derwood]

ESPN has so much faith in Dexter tying this that they're running the credits during his at bat

Fowler's arm sucks and there were 2 outs, so Rizzo was already heading home by the time Fowler got to it. I don't think there's anyway he's throwing out Rizzo at home there.

[Sammy Sofa]

Be cool, Dex.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Willy gotta make it interesting

Sweep!

[Sammy Sofa]

Sexcellent.

[We Got The Whole 9]

They are certainly finding their footing at home. Great series.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

SWEEEEEEEEP

[Schwarber Fan]

Fowler started the series with a homer. He went, we went.

[Cubswin11]

Excellent weekend. This is gonna be start of like 25 of 32.

He was never holding up with a body like that. This was always most likely best case scenario.
