4/24: Cubs (Chatwood) @ CLE (Tomlin) 5:10 (MLBN, WGN)

[Agony and Ivy]

Pretty sure that ball killed a fan in the bleachers. Russell to right center in this park is always delicious.

[Cubswin11]

Good to see Russell going up the middle/RF, when he starts doing that he tends to get it going

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Heyward can still walk. An improvement upon my Arrieta article.

Ben Utecht helped the 2006 Colts win "the championship" with his zero TDs. (Apologies if you're not watching on WGN as this will make no sense).

[Cubswin11]

This offense is going to destroy people when it gets hot out.

Schwarber has defined pec muscles now. It still doesn't look right.

Done

I thought the goal this year was less walks? My 9 year knows where his pitches are going better than Chatwood.

[Agony and Ivy]

Why are all WGN commercials from 1996 and in standard definition?

[Omar]

Why the heck is this game starting at 5:10? I know Cleveland is an hour ahead but even a 6PM start local time is odd

 

They do it until Summer break for the kids. The thought is it helps get more kids to the park since the games aren't ending at 10 or 1030 usually.

 

when will the kids find time to do their homework ?

[Agony and Ivy]

Zone to right side of the plate is making Eric Gregg spin in his grave.

That's not really a focus for the Ohio Public Schools

[Aaron_Kennelly]

DONGS!

[Agony and Ivy]

Tomlin is basically a future Reds starter.

Always good when a pitcher fields a bunt and your immediate reaction is “I hope he knows where this throw is going”

 

Also good when the answer is emphatically “he doesn’t”

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Maybe he will walk a batter per inning all year.

[Agony and Ivy]

That last pitch trax made it look like Chatwood pitches with a force field around the strike zone.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

For sure can't be walking Raji Davis with the top of the order coming up. I know Davis has some big home runs in his career, but still.

[Gilby]

That was a Loften-esque bat drop by Davis on that walk

[TMan92]

LaStella should have fielded the other one too. Thanks for bunting dorks.

[Agony and Ivy]

Kipnis looks like such a raging douche

[Sammy Sofa]

Great; how am I supposed to notice a game starts at horsefeathering 6:10?!? I missed all the good stuff.

It's like my tee shot. Then the moment I try to correct and play my fade I hit it straight into the houses down the left of the fairway.
