7/29 - Cubs (Taillon) vs Cardinals (Wainwright): 6:15pm, Marquee

[Derwood]

Taillon fooling no one so far

[UMFan83]

Oh we’re getting the old Taillon tonight

[UMFan83]

We can hit old man Waino so leave the damage to a minimum. Maybe Wesneski has something left in his arm lol

[Tryptamine]

Happy to get out of it with only 1.

[Andy]

Hot take - we should ground into fewer double plays

[Tryptamine]

So it's going to be one of those games with a dozen base runners and hitting into half a dozen double plays.  That's fun.

[UMFan83]

I was bored and my kids wanted to go to a baseball game so we’re at the Sox game. Someone saw me checking the Cubs score and they said “horsefeathers you Cubs fan” so I guess the rivalry is alive and well for White Sox fans

I'm surprised that they could read. They must have recognized the logo.

Lefties won't have a high batting average against you if you walk all of them.

[Tryptamine]

Didn't think that was a HR off the bat

[Jason Ross]

Good horsefeathers, Happ.

[KCCub]

Happ loves Waino

Same.  Even more so when I saw Walker who looked like he had that thing tracked.  After the HR it dawned on me how dumb that was, Walker's horrid in the OF.  Bottom 1% OAA, bottom 6% OF jump.

I thought for sure Walker was catching that by the way he was acting. Wasn't even close

He's probably the worst defensive OF'er in baseball as of today when it comes to movement.  He's got a 70+ grade arm, but holy horsefeathers he has no idea how to track a flyball.  That should have been the dead giveaway.

[Tryptamine]

Throw strikes, good god

[Tryptamine]

Walks the bases loaded....

[Jason Ross]

Bold strategy, Jameson.  Let's see if it pays off for you.

[Hunter]

Walking the bases loaded with 2 outs already.....

[Tryptamine]

Huge bullet dodged 

[Jason Ross]

Man, close to taking that back.  Good job, Gomes.

[SOFNR]

atta boy Gomes. 4-1. Almost got robbed there.

[KCCub]

This is fun guys
