Orioles (Rogers) vs Cubs (Horton): 8/1/25, 1:20pm

[Tryptamine]

Cubs aren't scoring again as long as Rogers is in there. This is really sad.

Let Go

They did not

This recent trend of "score a few runs early, but fail to deliver a killshot, and then go back to bed" is really aggravating.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Well that is one was to ease off on Horton

[Hot Sauce]

Slick fielding by Caleb. 

[Hot Sauce]

Thielbar has been so nice. 

[mul21]

I 100% get and am in favor of the reasoning behind pulling Horton after 71 pitches but I hate it in the moment.

[Tryptamine]

Caleb's start today actually made his xFIP go up from from 4.43 to 4.48.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Smoked by Shaw again 

[DYMNO]

I am falling in love with Matt Shaw.

Please find your power again soon, Kyle. I love getting on base as much as anyone but we need yo to bop.

 

@Jason Ross whats the story there? 

You know what...give me a day or so. Because I'm going to be honest and say without a super deep dive...I don't know. Probably something small mechanical however, if I were to guess. His approach and eye is fine so it's not pitch recognition errors. I'll look into it tonight and see if I can find a thing.

[chibears55]

Great start by Horton, he got the game to the late guys in the pen with the lead.

Be nice to add on here

[DYMNO]

Seiya is so lost not even a map could help him. Ugh.

[Tryptamine]

Seiya wtf was that?

[BigSlick]

Seiya desperately needs like a week off 

[Hortonhearsawho]

After that at bat Seiya needs to sit for a few because what was that. 

[Connor McConnor]

I'm glad it's not my 500 Million that I don't have paying Tucker at some point. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

horsefeathers those were some god-awful ABs. It's like the refuse to swing at anything on the outer plate.

[Outshined_One]

Alright, vengeance time for Kittredge!

[ILMindState]

Do big Z and Zobrist really hang out together? 

[jorbloss]

kittredge has a nice looking windup. gotta love the high socks too

[Jason Ross]

Fun inning from Kittredge
