Cubs (Steele) vs Pirates (Skenes): 5/11/24, 3:05pm

This is a career game for Mastro.  2 singles?  WOW.  Hope they can make it count 

[muntjack]

Gomes is at that point where he can only hit hangers.

[ToolDRT]

Should we just write a Gomes K on the scorecard preemptively?

Yes, yes you should.

Time to spend my Saturday doing something else. Good day, gentlemen!

Wasn’t Steele giving up a lot of HRs down the stretch last year when he faltered? If so concerning trend, I assumed he was just gassed last year but apparently he’s being taught by Hendricks

[JHBulls]

Ah, ffs. 

[muntjack]

It really feels like the Cubs can score at least a few more runs today.  

[muntjack]

I've got an oddly good feeling about this game.  

[Derwood]

All we need is Cody to run into a wall today and complete the trifecta

[UMFan83]

Love seeing Boog and JD marvel at these flame throwing pitchers because 94 is fast for the Cubs

[abuck1220]

that was a real meatball morel swung through 

[JHBulls]

WOW! Ump didn’t do the ump thing and call ball 4 a strike. I’m impressed.

I am just happy we’ve had unbiased colour announcers like Len/JD and Boog/JD because some teams announcers are just annoying to listen to. 

[JHBulls]

Nicholas, you wouldn’t look out of place with the Cubs lol.

He did call ball 1 to Morel as strike 1, though

[JHBulls]

WTF? 13 balls. I can’t say I’ve seen that before.

Cant win ‘em all.

At this stage you either bring in robo umps in or you clone Angel Hernandez heaps of times and just have him umpiring every single game in MLB. You know he will suck for both teams and make it fair for everyone.

Cubs shouldn't even bring bats with them to the plate

[UMFan83]

None of this counts if the game gets rained out. But at the same time the game is not official either so I think its either suspended at 6-6 or restarted.

Tie it on literally the last possible pitch before the delay

[Soul]

That’s just crazy 😂 

[PeanutPunch33]

This is a crazy game.  Love the patient approach..

[WhyCantWeWin]

The pirates are always gonna be the pirates
