8/24 Cubs (Mills) vs Reds (Harvey): 1:20 PM on NBC Sports Chicago

[TMan92]

Wind howling out and nothing. Like the World Series game.

[Sammy Sofa]

Sofa had me convinced Harvey sucks. He can start sucking this inning, please.

 

I shouldn't have to convince you of anything; he hasn't done horsefeathers with the Reds to indicate he doesn't suck.

[UMFan83]

This team is so horsefeathering unbelievably inconsistent on offense.

[Banedon]

At least we have our best hitter due up 2nd next inning.

I can’t believe the Brewers didn’t grab him.

 

They tried to.

 

Unless they were completely unreasonable, you get a deal done.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

season is back off

[TMan92]

At least we have our best hitter due up 2nd next inning.

 

And he probably won’t take the at bat.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Sounds like the Reds owner didn't want to trade him. When the owner gets involved, can't do much about it.

[UMFan83]

Hilarious that this kid is pitching his heart out, 1 run allowed through 5.1 IP AND has the team's only hit of the game.

[TMan92]

Schwarber and Contreras horsefeathering suck

[Ding Dong Johnson]

there's the schwarber defense we all know and barely tolerate

[UMFan83]

I think Schwarbs is (probably rightfully so) scared of colliding with the wall. Anytime he has to go after a ball hit near the wall he seems to ease up or in general just botch the play.

[Sammy Sofa]

Schwarber continues to plummet in the 2nd half, currently batting:

 

.219 .303 .365 .667

 

But it's gotta be bad luck, right? I mean, that BAbip is probably crazy low and-...

 

.270

 

Whoops.

The all star game tried to break Javy but he wouldn’t allow it.

[Sammy Sofa]

Go swallow a bus, ump.

[Tim]

That's Mills fourth out of the inning.

[Old Style]

Alec Mills: Somehow Kyle Hendricks

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Hilarious that this kid is pitching his heart out, 1 run allowed through 5.1 IP AND has the team's only hit of the game.

 

Wait. We only have one hit?

 

Well, that sucks.

[Banedon]

Well damn. Great job Millsy.

[Andy]

It was cool to be fixed on offense for 2 whole days

[TMan92]

Alec Mills: Somehow Kyle Hendricks

 

He didn’t give up runs in the first.

[Brian]

and here comes Rosario to throw the match on it

[CyHawk_Cub]

Removing your best hitter in a 1-run game is such a Maddon move.

[Sammy Sofa]

Sexcellent. NOW SCORE SOME DAMN RUNS.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

way to go, pelo fino
