5/24 Reds (DeSclafani) at Cubs (Hendricks) 1:20 NBC Chicago

[BigSlick]

Horrible 2b options. Where's Jim Hendry to save us in our hour of need?

it's not just because he's clobbering home runs now, but i miss tommy la stella, i admit it

[Schwarber Fan]

We also need to know if Zobrist is ever coming back.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Can't get a hit or an out with 2 outs. This is so horsefeathering annoying.

[soccer10k]

We also blew several scoring chances

 

We just don’t get 2 out hits, and other teams do. That’s the story of the losses on this homestand.

 

Cubs have a 890 OPS with RISP and 2 out, third in the league. Just a .240 BA which is 16th.

I'm fine with giving him all the time he needs but yeah it would certainly be nice to know if he's coming back next week, next month or not coming back at all.

We've lost twice this homestand. Once where we took the lead on a 2 out hit and lost due to the ump not calling a check swing properly. The other we were down 7-0 in the 4th inning and still managed to score 7 runs. I've been out of town this week so only seen bits and pieces so maybe they've not gotten hits with 2 outs but I don't think that was the main reason for either loss.

[Schwarber Fan]

Javy chasing a lot lately.

[soccer10k]

Damn, Javy. Should be two on no out.

[UMFan83]

Javy sells out expecting a strike and instead swings at a pitch inside and in the dirt, nice.

[soccer10k]

Willy definitely going to be hacking first pitch.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Would be really nice if Javy didn’t predetermine his full count swing.

[Schwarber Fan]

Heck yes Willy!!!

[Old Style]

WILLY!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Willy!!!!!!

[Old Style]

Come on, Albert. Time to play that fun old game horsefeathers The Closer.

[We Got The Whole 9]

We were due for a shitty contact run scorer

[Hawk4Hall]

Getting bailed out by pinch hitters again

[Schwarber Fan]

Cishek nice and easy please!

[UMFan83]

If we lose because Votto's foul tip was just barely unable to be caught by Contreras....

[BigSlick]

........WHAT THE horsefeathers

[UMFan83]

we need a new bullpen....barf

[Schwarber Fan]

Unbelievable. What’s it going to take, Theo?

[BigSlick]

[Hawk4Hall]
