Is this a joke? Is it literally impossible to not only deny Matt Carpenter from getting on base but also from homering literally every at bat?

 

My hatred for him is pure

 

Reminds me of Daniel Murphy in the NLCS. You know he’s red hot and has homered in like 5 consecutive games and it just keeps happening

For those that like to track the scores of our distant neighbors in both location and standings, Brewers took a 4-2 lead in the 7th

 

Thanks to the Dodgers Cardinal-like defense.

In case no one else looked it up yet, Carpenter has only once hit more than 23 and has never hit 30, and it's July, and he's 32 years old. Sure.

I wonder who Fake Joe is planning to close if the Cubs are still up. Assuming Strop will pitch the 8th if all goes smoothly. Cishek, Edwards and Wilson all pitched in game 1. I doubt they will use Carl in both games so probably Cishek or Wilson depending on matchups unless they get really crazy and use Maples or stupid crazy and Duensing

lol another Daniel Murphy comp except Carpenter was actually pretty good before his random power explosion at age 32

Didn't Carl only throw like five pitches, though?

One more person reaches and Carpenter will bat in the 9th.

 

This has nothing to do with the game, but for so long, everytime I see you "board name", I read it in my head as "Italiano Pasta Fan". I really can't explain it, but it cracks me up all the time.

I’m *still* angry at Daniel Murphy for that [expletive] home run he hooked down the right field line at like 85 mph

Haha, I was thinking of shortening it to just “the plan” or something. Only took us a couple years to accomplish the plan after I joined the board.

I missed it, but why were Baez and Maddon thrown out?

man, I was thinking as that developed that it was the same type play (on the other side of the mound) as the play that destroyed his leg in '16
