9/11 - Cubs (Wicks) vs Rockies (Freeland): 7:40pm, Marquee

[Andy]

Bellinger auto double on a grounder, so good

[Irrelevant Dude]

Lots of half swings from Dansby so far tonight.

[UMFan83]

What a terrible AB by Swanson. Come on dude

[Irrelevant Dude]

Let it breathe Sutcliffe. We don't need a story for every pitch.

[UMFan83]

1st and 3rd with 0 outs and now 2 outs without a run scoring. 
 

a couple innings now we’ve had a chance to blow it open and failed

Rolled over another one for a double 

He's had a knack for seeing-eye grounders this season

couple absolute garbage at bats from the big money hitters. awful. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Just absolutely abysmal ABs by Swanson and Happ. Stop horsefeathers getting yourself out chasing trash.

[abuck1220]

I mean great job by Gomes but what a terrible slide by suzuki

[UMFan83]

Ok Gomes got one in at least. Clutch

[Derwood]

TOOTBLAN?

[Irrelevant Dude]

I don't see anything to overturn that one.

[abuck1220]

here’s my arm to tag

It was. No effort whatsoever to get around the tag.

[Andy]

Hell of a job by Yan to at least salvage 1 there. For whatever reason he's just nails in those spots

Nah 2 outs, perfectly fine send IMO. Throw was good

[Transmogrified Tiger]

kinda weird that no one does a hook slide anymore, must be too high risk without a lot of practice that isn't worth it?

[UMFan83]

Seiya didn’t even protest, not sure what Ross’ video guy saw that made him challenge that. I guess it’s a big enough situation with a run on the line

That’s what I figured.

[Irrelevant Dude]

That was damn impressive. Is he done now?

[UMFan83]

Jordan Wicks is an absolute monster

[Derwood]

So the pitchers who cost nothing (Steele, Assad, Wicks) are completely outperforming the pitchers who are making brajillions (Taillon, Stroman, etc.)

[PeanutPunch33]

Wicks… fire 

[Jason Ross]

That Jordan Wicks guy is a bulldog.  Glad to see him succeed.  

[Irrelevant Dude]

I just love the command.  It's great to see a rookie come up and absolutely pound the strike zone.
