9/9 COBS (Hendricks) @ Fathers (Quantrill) 9:05 CST WGN

[Irrelevant Dude]

Fire the WGN camera guy.

I assumed the ball was going to land 10 rows deep.

[TMan92]

This team just does nothing well.

[Irrelevant Dude]

I guess that was about the best possible outcome after the error.

[cubscott34]

Schwar-bomb!

[weis21]

Tough crowd

[Irrelevant Dude]

What the hell is the camera guy doing?

[cubscott34]

Nico!!

[TMan92]

Nico clearly hasn't been with this organization long enough to get screwed up. Let's just leave Russell in San Diego. Maybe they will take him back.

[profisme]

Excellent. No reason to ever see Russell again.

[Cubswin11]

God damn, Cubs don’t have a system though

[Schwarber Fan]

Hoerner has sparked the team!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Hoerner has sparked the team!

This team sparks a lot. They just never catch fire

[soccer10k]

I see this is going to be the blowout game where we put up 10 runs only to score 4 total in the next two games.

 

PROVE ME WRONG CUBS.

[Old Style]

ALL HAIL OUR NEW OVERLORD NICO HORNER!

[Cubswin11]

Hopefully Bryant’s Disco Ball stayed up for this contact fest, he’d be loving it.

[PackLandVA]

Big Dick Nic-o!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

3rd straight start Quantrill has allowed 8ER. Nice to pound someone that deserves a pounding.

[Irrelevant Dude]

'Simply the Best' seems like an odd song choice for anything in a 2019 Cubs broadcast.

[PackLandVA]

Heyward needs to not bat leadoff. I know...duh.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Hopefully Bryant’s Disco Ball stayed up for this contact fest, he’d be loving it.

 

This is a family message board, so I'll just say that I'm quite excited.

 

See how much easier things are when you just get some hits, Cubs?

 

ETA: To be totally honest, I am only following on gamecast, but I could just picture the hits when I closed my eyes.

Heyward needs to not bat leadoff. I know...duh.

 

I mean he has a bloop single with the infield in and another base hit that should have been fielded by Hosmer, but yeah he’s where he belongs in the lineup.

[BigSlick]

i was looking at Heyward's month splits and they are fascinating. He basically has had on and off great months sandwiching just horrific months, a fantastic April, a horrific May, an incredible June, a mediocre July and then one of the worst months of baseball possible in August (he had an 0-26 stretch in a month where he only had 90 plate appearances)

[soccer10k]

There’s like a 5% chance Kyle’s actually got a broken leg right now but the medical staff won’t find it for another week.

[Old Style]

Schwarber just hit a dong. It wasn’t a home run this time, he actually fouled a ball off his johnson. That’s pretty difficult to do.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Haha. This is great.
