[David]

what the hell was that call

[FlyTheW]

Schwarber literally can't hit Edwin Jackson now

[Gilby]

It is not often you get that call when a catcher moves his glove THAT much for a pitch off the plate.

[UMFan83]

Schwarber is an auto K lately

[David]

how about the rare jon jay dong

[Ding Dong Johnson]

FUUUUUUUUGGGGGG

[itisallpartoftheplan]

[David]

damnit

[Ding Dong Johnson]

stop being hot garbage, kris

[Ding Dong Johnson]

stop being hot garbage, kris

or don’t. whatever.

[Agony and Ivy]

Lol Jaxon's revenge

[UMFan83]

13 of 14 batters retired by Jaxon since the Avila HR

[Sammy Sofa]

This team is assy as hell, even when they are winning.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

This team is assy as hell, even when they are winning.

yeah, I really don’t like this year’s team much

 

I also do not like most things so that statement doesn’t carry a whole lot of weight

[FlyTheW]

This team is maddening to watch as a baseball fan. Maybe we were spoiled so much by last year but their situational hitting is among the worst I've ever seen. They don't move runners over, they don't get clutch hits. It's hard to watch.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

highest career batting average at Wrigley: [expletive] Murphy and then like 4 dead guys

[Gilby]

This lineup construction really is something to behold.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

loosen the reigns, tim. un-ban the word [expletive]!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Am I reading this score right? I swear it says we are winning a game started by Lackey against one of the top three offenses in the league, but it seems like we are actually losing by 7.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Duensing is pitching like Duke said he sucked

[Ding Dong Johnson]

any time you only have a 1 run lead against jaxon, it’s pretty much the same as losing by 7

[David]

WILLSON!

[Ding Dong Johnson]

DONG

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Take all the bases you want Willson!!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Willson is the greatest baseball player ever.
