84, really Kyle?

 

Ahem... one of them hit 86.

Less time lifting books and peer reviewed journals and more time lifting weights in the offseason for Kyle. IMO

Choking dog Kris Bryant, before his pathetic groundout, was hitting .243/.333/.432 against the White Sox, and sporting a 40.5% K-rate. If you can't get up for the Crosstown Cup, what are you even doing here, Kris?

To be fair I'm prettt sure at least one of the cross town games featured his kryptonite in the human form of James Shields

I think that's the only year we've ever won it since it was introduced. Not that the crosstown cup means anything at all, but i hate how if the series is a split, the defending team "wins" it. I mean that's fine that the cup is retained but I don't think it deserves to be celebrated on the field with photos etc if you split a series with the other team.

 

But again the crosstown cup is stupid, we have bigger fish to fry lol

 

You dare besmirch the Crosstown Cup? This is why White Sox fans hate Cubs fans.

 

Hah, I have a White Sox fan in our office that loves to point out that the Cubs may have won 103 games and the World Series, but they didn't have a perfect season because they didn't win the Crosstown Cup. I know he's saying that just to rile up Cubs fans, but honestly who even thinks of that?

What Cub fan would get riled up over that? They should be too busy laughing in his face at the stupidity of thinking that means anything.

What is the lowest Hendricks' fastball velocity could drop to before he became a below-average starter? 75 mph? 60?

Kyle Hendricks, somehow end of career Jamie Moyer

Zobrist has the worst walkup music in baseball history

A rare derwood post that is 100% on point

 

I hated his old music but now I kind of miss it...especially over his current crap. Come on Julianna.

This has gotta be Kyle's last inning....they are starting to make solid contact and I'm sure he's on a PC

 

Yeah, I'm thinking the 3rd time through wouldn't be the greatest.

My only option to watch this game is CSN. At first, I was upset, but Hawk's tears taste so good.
