How do you get runs?

[CubinNY]

gives some wine to Bacchus to get the curse off the Cubs.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

there's no way any team has half as many 95 mph EV outs as the Cubs [/self-indulgent whining]

[Cubswin11]

I’m starting to get very encouraged about Russell having his breakout year finally

[Old Style]

How do you get runs?

Eat Taco Bell.

It’s starting to get really annoying but I guess just keep doing it and eventually they’ll start dropping

[UMFan83]

That was not played well Happ

[Schwarber Fan]

And here we go. Reds will have no trouble getting that guy home.

[Cubswin11]

That was ugly, Happ

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Happ you played that into a triple, not great

[Schwarber Fan]

First lead of the season for the Reds, LOL.

[Agony and Ivy]

Happ is pretty terrible at just about everything except murder.

[UMFan83]

First lead of the season for the Reds, LOL.

 

YES, let the meatball take control

[CubinNY]

Chatwood did pretty well after the triple.

Wrong team.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Hot take alert: I question our scouting on pitchers our hitters are facing for the first time. They've been abysmal.

 

*checks notes*

23-years-old

20 career innings

Will put 96 on the black every pitch

25 year old Jarlin Garcia goes 6 innings of shutout ball

Caleb Smith 5.1 1 ER

Dillon Peters 6 shutout

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Chatwood did pretty well after the triple.

 

I'd prefer to consider it a double even though the official score keeper can't.

[Schwarber Fan]

This strike zone is absolutely unreal.

[UMFan83]

Oh come on, that's the furthest Heyward has ever hit a ball in his life and he gets nothing for it.

[woodchip2153]

Who is the guy doing the play by play for the radio in the 5th? Sounds like he's announcing golf

[Transmogrified Tiger]

could not get a more visceral example of the defensive gap between Hamilton and Happ than the last inning

[Ding Dong Johnson]

did they lose yet? should I start the next gam thread?
