Cardinals (Mikolas) vs Cubs (Taillon): 6/16/24, 12:05pm

[Andy]

4.85 ERA and a 37% fly ball rate for Mikolas this year and I think we've hit one fly ball.

You have to make contact first to hit a flyball.

One thing, the broadcast is so much clearer. Marquee must be using inferior equipment 

Had to pawn the good stuff to make up for the biblical losses.

[Andy]

Ron just asked Pat if he was "taping" today's game on Roku to watch later, and sometimes it's nice to not feel quite as old as I usually do

[Andy]

Goldschmidt singles after not being rung up on essentially the same check swing Tauchman did get rung up on earlier

[BKHoo]

Minor miracle only down two.  Go Cubs.

[Andy]

Busch hits a ball harder than Pages and it doesn't get out, so it's going to be that kind of day

[JHBulls]

I see that Amaya is still wearing those concrete boots.

Only pair he owns.

If we DHd for our catchers and put our pitchers in the 9 hole would anyone notice?

[BKHoo]

A no hitter so far. This is embarrassing. 

[UMFan83]

Pages' HR seems to have broken statcast.  It doesn't have an exit velo or distance, it just says the xBA was .080

Yeah I've been watching that and waiting for an update, but still nothing

[CubinNY]

There’s a base hit. Flood gates now open.

Madison Bumgarner is a FA so why the hell not? 

[UMFan83]

Nothing better than watching the Cubs lose on an obscure streaming broadcast channel that keeps freezing and disconnecting with Chip Caray doing PBP.

[CubinNY]

Little BABIP Khama. 

[JHBulls]

Bases loaded. That’s good.

2 outs. Why the hell are we the unluckiest team in baseball. 😞

[CubinNY]

Come on Nico. 

[UMFan83]

Love how that's going to count as a hit for the Cubs with RISP even though it didn't score a run.

[Derwood]

Hoerner must be sitting on a breaking ball because he's been late on 3 or 4 fastballs in a row

[UMFan83]

Looked safe but not convincing enough to overturn.  We'll see

[CubinNY]

Happ is safe. But don’t know if they will turn it

[Rex Buckingham]

Ian's left foot went over the base... if it goes into the base he's safe

[CubinNY]

Boooooooo!!!!!
