TIL, Glizzy is a slang term for hot dog. I thought it was a condiment you put on a hot dog. I wish the MLB.TV commercial would at least mention that so I wouldn’t have to go Googlin’ lol. 

[Hortonhearsawho]

This offense is really hard to watch.

I always thought it was slang in particular for the glistening hot dogs on the rollers at 7-11s and the like.

Can Palencia come through?

Can’t imagine how boring it could get for announcers sitting in a booth 130-162+ games a year, upwards of 3 hours each game just calling the play by play (plus however many more hours spent getting to and from the ballpark and doing media stuff). No wonder we hear the same stories over and over again. 

Yea but not in the same series..lol

I guarentee we'll hear about Karros and see the same photo tomorrow 😅

It like once a week now they show JD old playing photos, like theyre reminding us he used to play lol

[chibears55]

Let Go

He's gonna have to because this offense ain't going to help him.

[UMFan83]

Happ is so unlucky. Though that ball probably didn’t have a high xBA

[UMFan83]

I’m extremely concerned about PCA at this point. He just can’t seem to get out of this death spiral and his OPS keeps plummeting. 

[DYMNO]

This is going to suck, isn’t it?

[Geographyhater8888]

Haven’t scored over 4 runs in consecutive games since August 25-27, 31 games ago.

Has anyone hit a ball to the stands in CF at Coors, that gotta be 500 feet

So, so lost. A precipitous fall from offensive dominance to cluelessness.

Why does Kittredge’s delivery always look like a position player’s delivery lol

That’s a really good point lol - never thought of it, but you’re correct ✅ 

[Papa Cub]

Where is my buddy on here that argued with me about how PCA’s elite defense is enough to warrant him not sitting out some games?? No doubt the kid is talented, especially in the field, but this guy is a liability anymore at the plate! It’s ridiculous- sit him already or make some changes. Do something Craig 

[UMFan83]

He got the K but his control is not there…

Yeah, he’s been shaky last few outings with his control

[JHBulls]

It was ugly at times, but a wins a win. 

[UMFan83]

Nice job Palencia. 10 games up with 26 to play lol

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Did what we had to do..

10 games up. Win another tomorrow.

[DYMNO]

Glad they won, but that was the least exciting, most frustrating win I’ve seen in some time. A “W” beats and “L,” though, and beggars can’t be choosers.

The Reds have lost 8 of 9 I believe. Love to see it.

[chibears55]

W..

Great pitching by the pen tonight 9 up 9 down, cant ask for anything better than that.

If the Cardinals win tomorrow they are closer to use than the Reds are.
