Dammit Busch please just hit the ball

*grounds into a first pitch DP*
 

Damn you

[DYMNO]

This Fox broadcast is horrendous. 

[UMFan83]

I was trying to figure out what the horsefeathers happened. The lack of play-by-play during that Willson segment made it all the more confusing. Awful.

Fox completely ignored it of course

That’s why I was so confused! 

[UMFan83]

Glad the day off really refreshed these bats

[Andy]

5.77 ERA and our guys get the ball out of the infield once the first time through with horsefeathers instant double plays both times someone reached. Seems about right

[chibears55]

Pirates are winning

Brewers are winning

Cubs trying to figure out how to get baserunners and score runs 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[DYMNO]

I guess Seiya and Shota are the same person, huh, Fox? Unreal.

[Crusader]

Hard to watch with these Fox announcers.

[UMFan83]

Well that seems insurmountable 

[Andy]

Goldschmidt hits what would've been an easy inning ending DP ball right after STL steals 2nd to eliminate the double play, and a bloop hit adds a 2nd run.

So a very similar script to seemingly every damn game in this stadium

[chibears55]

Cubs will end up being sellers in July, watch...

 

[JHBulls]

You need to spend money Jed.

”Okay, here’s Jameson horsefeathers Taillon for $68 million.”

[Andy]

Glad to see we got not crappy Taillon for like a week or whatever that was

[DYMNO]

2 runs feels like 10

[gflore34]

I want some more popping up and weak grounders off hanging breaking pitches and average fastballs please.

They were 9 games under .500 in mid-June last year and were buyers.  As frustrating as this run is right now have patience.

[Illiterate Scholar]

That horrible call still kinda hurt with them being able to roll their lineup over with just one out. That might sound weak but whatever

0-0 feels insurmountable these days

[UMFan83]

That seriously wasn’t a HR?  Damn. Good work tying it though. Runs! Actual offense!
